wow, that was a close finish. btw, course record is 57:37 in New Haven, it's not totally flat, but quite - Strava tells me 166m elevation (that's about 500ft for you metric system deniers). I have no idea what the equivalent time on a completely flat course would be.
Bull. Feel free to email me, call me, whatever you'd like. If I'm using my works internet as I was, my IP might get routed through there. Don't you dare call me a liar. How would you like to verify? Then I'll call you the liar.

...all in good fun, no hard feelings. Anyway, let's talk about race- 30:38/59:04 is a nice negative split on a challenging course. 28:26 second half!
To be Fair Though the overall Pace for Rupp was 1:02:18 Pace if these numbers are correct then for the first half they were going
30:38= 1:04:38 Pace
and the Second half they Closed in
28:26= 59:59 pace
Hasay is nuts! Making headlines running since she was 12 years old, now just entering her prime? This is crazy kind of running.

There you go. I'm in Newington, CT right this minute. Where's my apology?
In a world where evidence does matter . . . Yours is the response of the year. Thanks.

In road racing, the official time is rounded up to the next full second.
So the winner could have had a time of :03.9 (rounded up to :04) and second place :04.1 (rounded up to :05)
Those times are weak as hell. His time would translate to about a 2:07 or 2:08 marathon time.
And Jordan's time? 66 mins for a 20k? Elite Women do the half in 64 to 65 mins!
Both of them are going to get smashed to pieces in Chicago. No way in hell can Rupp run anything lower than 2:06, maybe not even 2:08. And Hasay is not in the class of Huddle or Cragg. She was a very weak track runner, and seems to be just as weak on the road.
NOP please up your doping game, because this isn't going to cut it.

Nice! Rojo sounds a bit like an assh*, and it's not the first time I'm noticing.

Bull. I uploaded that from my phone. Where's the dbag brojo to check that location? Bring it on. And bring me my apology.
Where's Huddle? Isn't she doing a fall marathon? Seems like this would fit in well to a buildup. Also, she ran significantly faster in 2015 than Hasay did today.
Based on the time of day and shadow on your wrist, i'd say it's accurate, or a very very good photoshop.
Nice call of race btw, much appreciated.

Another photo of the finish:

Take a look at vids/photos of every close race, one meter after the finish, and it's almost always the case that the second place person is ahead of the winner. Two reasons: 1) the winner relaxes 2) the second place person is saying "I had you if the race was a bit longer". The latter is sometimes true, but mostly just sour grapes.

Huddles running new york to improve upon her 3rd place finish. I don't think she is going to mess around with the fast marathons too much. She is a gritty runner with speed, so she is going to mostly run New York and Boston, and she will win one of them. But you know here heart is in New York, so she wants that one badly.
Like I stated, hasay is the female version of rupp....weak. Huddle and cragg are way above her. 66 is a terrible time for a 20k.

Rojo stays home DEVASTATED!
I can't believe the BroJos don't know how IP addresses work..

Hard to tell if you're trolling or serious here - so I'll go 2/10. This was clearly just a training run for both - maybe 85-90% effort.
