Is there a site that's posting splits for the entire field?
Is there a site that's posting splits for the entire field?
bump, anyone?
I was also wondering this. It's odd that we will be able to get live splits for every penguin tomorrow, but can't get the splits for the runners in the Olympic trials.
the splits WERE available for the olympic trials on the nyrr website. they had an athlete tracker that updated every 5k and at the half -- i used it since i couldn't get the (*@&$@(* video to work. However, i went back to the site and can't find it now, just the final results. I'm sure they're out there somewhere and that NYRR will put them up.
Earlier today while the race was being run and for a few hours afterward, you could pull up runners on the
site by tracking results. I had about 10 runners I was tracking and it gave 5K splits, half splits, and finishing time. But I think that info is not available anymore.
I did see that Hall and Ritz went through half officially in 1:06:17. I also saw that Sell had a 1:58 neg split. I also saw that Josh Cox faded badly from 30K to 35K and then there was no more info on him so I assumed he DNF'ed. It was also eerie because when the commentators mentioned Shay had collapsed, I looked him up to see where he was and how fast he was running. But his name wasn't in the database (but this was after the race had finished and maybe the website officials already knew what happened and removed the info out of sensitivity to the situation).
I'd love to see the mile splits for Hall, Ritz, Sell, and KK. On the broadcast, Hall ran one mile (17th? 18th?) in 4:32.

I think it was on the 4th loop around mile 17, Cox stopped right in front of my and was grabbing at his left foot as if it was cramped or something. I didn't see him after that.
This article has a ton of info on various splits:
Hall tamed a Central Park course that has virtually no flat stretch and is a constant stream of bends and curves. His mile splits tell the story once he left the pack. Starting with the 13th mile, they were 4:44, 4:53, 4:53, 4:59, 4:56, 4:32, 4:41, 4:34, 4:40, 4:51, 4:42, 4:52, 4:47 and 4:49, before he crossed the finish line in 2:09:02. He ran the first half of the race in 1:06:17 and the second half in 1:02:45.
