If he's in top 10, I'll get it to ya. But this could be one of the tightest races. Wonder what the time for the 10th place would be...
Hey Tinman!!
4th Matsumiya 2:09:40
5th Aburaya 2:10:29
Nobby -
Well, he's kicking inside my wife's tummy a lot and wants out! The due-date is 24 December, but we think he'll be early. By the way, his middle name is going to be Ovett. I was a big fan of Steve's.
I see your getting lots of snow in Coon Rapids area. I recall those winters vividly - beautiful but cold. How are you holding up?
Tin
thanks so very much! We are pulling for him!
Fujita 2:11:5?
Hey Zato - still teaching?
Tin
Guess not... Kinda big gap to 4th and beyond. I'm surprised with Matsumiya's 2:09.
So the Emperor Geb ran 2:06:35 for his debut... Merga didn't do too shabby at all!
oops . Fujita's time is wrong. He collapsed right before the finish..
The broadcast might be over. The are rolling the credits
Could someone post a result of Australian Brett Cartwright once he has crossed the line.
thanks
Still teaching. Just signed another 5 year contract. So I will be in osaka for several more years

This was Merga's second, for what it's worth. He ran at Paris earlier this year. I think he's got a bright future ahead of him.

Huh? Collapsed?
Takaoka 2.13.40 was 10th.
Mark has 1.20 to make it.
You will have to follow on the official site. The TV broadcast just finished. maybe Nobby can let us know
Merga also ran Boston 2006 and was in the lead trio through ~30K. He tried to finish but dropped out at around the 25th mile.
Zato -
Congrats on the 5-yr contract. That's super!
Ok, better go see how my prego wife is doing. She's a trooper, I tell ya, and if I had as much toughness as she I'd be out doing a 20 mile run now. Ha!
Take care and thanks for the play-by-play and good will!
Tin
Sorry, yes, you did mention he ran 2:13, was it? My bad. Either way, great improvement. Hall better watch out.
He was running in slow motion the last 100 meters
Hey, Tinman. Good luck with the junior!
