Good morning LRC nation.
Random things of note:
1) Men's pack at 5k (15:47) still has some guys with numbers/not names on their bibs and one local guy with headphones visible.
2) This pace is probably what Nick Arciniaga wanted. He's not going to be in no man's land early.
3) There are at least 10 guys in yellow on bikes next to the leadpack. They all have mics and presumably are talking to the TV crews and will be able to report exactly what is happening.
4) The media room has a constant feed on the men's and lead's pack so hopefully we'll always be able to tell you what's happening (unless like last year the feed goes out)
5) Some athletes have NRC on their right logo. That is Nike Running Club.
