This is interesting--Alyanak had been off the back for a while and has now moved up to 6th. Not much of a chance unless many runners ahead of her blow up but I'm still pulling for the local gal.

Kastor is flying now, Boulet is hurting-5:57 mile. It is all over Deena will win easily...
5:57 last mile for Boulet. Form looks ragged. Ok, maybe Deena will catch her before 24.2
boulet just threw out a 5:57 last mile
kastor has gained 14 secs on the lead.
Boulet is definately hurting. Starting to lean forward here and limiting her knee lift. I thought Deena would get her at 22.
Ohmygoodness, we've got a race! This is going to be good. 5:51 last mile by Magdalena. Deena is taking out about 15 seconds per mile on her. I think it's going to get a lot worse before it gets better for Magdalena...
5:57 last mile for our leader. Oops.
Deena's 21st was 5:34 against Boulet's 5:57.
Mile 21 Split: Lewy Boulet 5:57, Kasto 5:34, gains a big 23 seconds.
Boulet is in trouble.This is going to be a wild finish.
Desiree dropping back:
Bib Name Time at Mile 21 Mile Split Projected Finish
1. 43 Magdalena Lewy Boulet 1:59:44 0:05:57 2:29:20
2. 1 Deena Kastor 2:00:36 0:05:34 2:30:39
3. 17 Blake Russell 2:01:44 0:05:51 2:31:57
4. 87 Desiree Davila 2:01:53 0:05:52
At 21, 4th was a little over 2 minutes back from 1st. With Boulet slowing, can Davila catch?
oh, man this is a beautiful thing to watch! What a fight
5:54 mile for Boulet. 40 second gap...
announcers need to realize its a marathon. nobody is safe
I'm pulling for Ann too!! Go ANN!!
Boulet 5:52 for mile 22 so rebounds a bit, but probably not enough to hold off Kastor's steamroller. Russell also looking very solid for third as Davila fades.
fighting themselves that is. boulet against slowing, Kastor against dispair, Russell against fear of another 4th
good profile of lewy boulet
Mile 22: Boulet: 5:52, Deena: 5:32.
