Hey, it was fun while it lasted.
Dibaba just thanked Desi for rabbiting the race.......
wow, that move. i looked down for 3 seconds and looked back up and the women's front pack just exploded. what a move.
Mile 21: 5:52 1:56:50
I'm a little skeptical of this, but media room has women running 5:52 for the 21st mile -- slowest of the race.[/quote]
21 is the hilliest mile on the course. The women clearly aren't running very fast if there are 9 still there.

It's all downhill from here for the women.

Buzu is still there
Oh well, 11% now looks generous for Desi.
Hold your horses! Linden back to the lead! That was a short move by Dibaba.
At mile 19 they were 1:33:44 total time (2:09:20 pace).
Ritz still leading now with Meb in 3rd. Ritz looks good. Meb dropping his arms like he's trying to loosen up a bit.
OR NOT!

Tsegay makes a move and Ritz looks to almost fall off, but now Ritz back on and Meb out front with a fist pump to the crowd.
