There she goes. Boulet trying to hook onto the Deena steamroller
Deena looking great!
Boulet had 2 minutes on Russell, so should cruise to 2nd
Mile 23: Russell: 5:57, Desiree: 6:15
do the women have to meet an olympic standard like the men? and if so, does boulet have that standard?
5:20 or so for mile 24!
Her spot is safer not to try and go w/DK hope she knows that.

No, her split was 5:29.
A race like this is a work of art IMHO.
Mile 24: 5:29 for Deena
Why don't they show more of the battle for 3rd, and even 4th and 5th, afterall this is the Olympic qualifying race, 1-5th place is quite an accomplishment.
Why is it called a tear-drop turn? Isn't it more like a lemon drop turn?
still excellent...

Because the producers don't give a damn about this whole race, that's why.
5:51 mile 24 for Russell
And Ryan Hall-esque fist pumping to commence in three, two,...
I think the women's marathon standard is around 2:39, but not quite certain, so all three will go.
