Does anyone know what happened to Tsegaye Kebede? That little guy is my favorite
Kebede was a DNS with a leg issue.
Anyone else mildly interested by the fact that four Kenyans are pacing a field full of Ethiopians?

Kebede is one of my favorites too. Renato came on earlier and gave us a heads up that he wasn't running. apparently he's nursing a injury.

David Barmasai won in 2:07:18. He never broke 2:10 before or after that.
Does anyone know if they had a $200,000 purse back then?
Jesus. You can't just call people drug-cheats willy-nilly, rojo. It was his third marathon and his 2:10 was at altitude a year after he started training seriously.

Can someone tell me why the other commentator not named Paula Radcliffe is just a normal sportsman? I mean what's the point of having someone who doesn't know running. The only people watching an online stream at 1041 pm at night in the US, 3 am in EUrope are diehards.

interesting that the men are on world record pace but the women are predicted to finish more than 5 minutes after world record pace
Anyone on here an expert on islam? Why do they run their races on Friday in the middle east?
11 guys on world record pace.

after 26k, but pretty sure they will cut out and show the women when that happens..

The target audience is maybe the middle east hobby joggers.

Looks like 10 in the pack now.
The 4 kenyans in mighty ducks flying V formation pacing the rest.
Holy cow.
I always said if I was an agent, I'd have my guys go to Dubai and go out in 62:30 with their own rabbit. It always seem to slow down big time. Didn't they go out well under WR pace a few years back? Someone jog my memory.
E. African women are slackers! Only Paula trained hard.

Friday is the religious day of the week in Islam.
So those top three guys are all rabbits. That why it looks like they are hurting big time - they are.
Koech, Kipruno and Kipruto are all rabbits as listed here.
Great interview with Steve Cram - says Jakob has no chance of WRs this year
