who is the white dude with the beard in the lead group?
Great, we're gonna get to watch the world's most boring women's race while the men duke it out at 2:03 pace.
Men have just hit 5km, but they weren't showing it, so missed the split.
tough to tell who he is - they are not showing the men
Women's pacer looks like she's gonna drop out any moment now. I wonder if that is going to affect the leading group's pace.
flotrack is blogging the bbc one feed, which is showing mens race. . .

In-f*cking-sane speed!
5km in 14:08, which is projecting a sub-2 hour time! Obviously, that's not going to happen, but man, that is a fast start.
All the main guys gone with it.
nice they are showing chase women's pack
Ritz? I know he didnt want to mix it up out front but where is he?
Geez. What was Geb's 5k at Dubai? Like 14:50 I think.
Wish they'd show the men, see how they're holding up on this pace.
