Top 3 all beat Khannouchi's cource record of 57:37. Pace for Mantz was 4:32/mile.
Probably the best conditions ever and the best field ever.
I hate the formatting these websites give in the results. You have to pull teeth just to get anything meaningful from them. Here's the top 20:

Time for Mantz is probably about equal to his half marathon's back before Boston, so he should be in comparable fitness. Looking like a decent shot to get the AR in Chicago if the weather cooperates
Yeah but something isn’t right about this result. There’s no way he should be struggling to run 4:50 pace for 12 miles.
he’s older but damn chelanga beat him by 2 minutes and he’s older than rupp a few years ago rupp was way ahead of chelanga. Age doesn’t hit you this hard, this to me seems like rupp wasn’t clean
