Counting from the feed I'm watching, the russian? is about 8 seconds back from the pack and Flanagan another 10-12 behind her.

Thats twice that the Ethiopians have thrown their bottles at the Kenyans Feet. Inow hope the Kenyans win.
Russian, Arkipova has now caught up with the Africans. Gelana now only Ethiopian still in the lead. 3 Kenyans, 1 Ethiopian, 1 Russian
Russia for the win
Petrova has caught up and she looks the strongest. Kiplagat struggling.
32.2km - Arkhipova catches the leaders! Beautiful form, appears comfortable.
Kiplagat falls off lead pack!
Arkhipova is running really well as the lead pack strings out even further.
Shalane is out of medal contention. Best she could do now is hang on for a top 10 finish.
Kenyan's going down?
Russian is booking it.
Everyone aware that's the same Tatyana Petrova that won WC steeple silver in '07?
aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaand g-damn French tv switches to horse jumping. How I loathe French sports coverage. I've gone marathon-blind.

Arkipova looks fresh and fit; Edna Kiplagat has caught back up to the lead group/ 5 women now in the lead 1:54:13 - another half hour to go
33k still on 2:24 pace - stable
This Russian chick was a steeplechaser?
Can't get enough greek yogurt.
how could flanagan and goucher not keep up with 2:24 pace for 18 miles? I would never have guessed that. weird.
Arkipova looking fit. Announcers openly supporting her.
This "coverage" sucks.
RIP: D3 All-American Frank Csorba - who ran 13:56 in March - dead
RENATO can you talk about the preparation of Emile Cairess 2:06
Running for Bowerman Track Club used to be cool now its embarrassing
Hats off to my dad. He just ran a 1:42 Half Marathon and turns 75 in 2 months!
Great interview with Steve Cram - says Jakob has no chance of WRs this year
Rest in Peace Adrian Lehmann - 2:11 Swiss marathoner. Dies of heart attack.
