Italian woman in the lead
Malaysia truly Asia
Melkamu wins probably?
Any updates?
Italian+Kiplagat 1-2. Melkamu 3rd.
why isn't Keitany not running?
The Italian Valeria Straneo and Kiplagat are up front. Melkamu is done.
Kayoko Fukushi caught Melkamu and then Melkamu dropped out
all those bikes on the side of the road slower than the runners ha.
GO STRAENO!!!!!!!!!
Kayoko Fukushi is now in sight of the leaders. 200m back
Kiplagat broke free but Straneo is sits 10m back and is hanging tough.
Straneo basically lead for 40km
Moscow celebrates as one of their own comes through to take gold.*
*female distance running dope fiend.
the times are incredibly slow, even if you consider the
warm weather. Also notice the spread. This tells us that the
blood passes are working!!

I guess you will celebrate when the biggest dopper among distance runners, your national hero, wins the 10K.
Nice to see Deena Kastor place 9th. She apparently beat my #2 and 3 picks Tiki Gelana and Boru Feyse Tadese.
9 Kastor 2:36:12
18 McMahon 2:39:52
Woohooo ... how many other people had
1. Kiplagat
2. Straneo (any Euro)
3. Fukushi (any Asian except Noguchi)
in the lets run prediction contest, because I did, and this was the exact athlete combo I thought it would be (although getting a bunch of other 2:25-2:29 types, including a Russian who has a 2:23 PR, all of which who could break through in the nasty conditions was a bonus).
That Italian girl should be allowed in the mens race too, she has more balls than any white runner has displayed since 2004...
