While he looks good, probably not the best thing to be leading this early in a long race.

Some of those guys are working hard already, that's not a good sign
Probably around 20-25 men in the lead pack. Think there are going to be a few rough second halves today...
Wow. Coe, whether he realizes it or not, is basically giving huge props to Kara Goucher and Steve Magness. He says if you are in a training group and see something suspicious, speak up.

All I hear is a couple of numskulls droning on.
Coe has made a few good points. I wasn't sure if they'd ask him anything about the recent troubles given he and Paula are friends, but they've talked about it. Coe said he accepts that IAAF doesn't deserve fans' trust right now and that it will take a while to win it back. He lso called on athletes to be more proactive in reporting dopers, saying there are athletes out there who know they're training with a doper.

Quick, somebody ask him if IAAF is doing anything for the stepanovs who spoke up and have been living under assumed names ever since.

On 2h21 pace.
