A turn!
A turn!
Wow, they showed it. They made it impossible to cut short this year. Must have learned lesson from last year.
Geez, they are 17 seconds ahead of Kimetto's 26km split according to their graphic.

Anyone on here an expert on islam? Why do they run their races on Friday in the middle east?
Friday is a blessed day in Islam.
The Friday prayer (at noon) is the most important of the week.

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 she said a WR wouldn't count because their are men in the race. Wasn't her WR set with male pace makers?

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.
Can someone tell me why the commentator named The Doper Paula Radcliffe isn't in prison? I mean what's the point of having a cheater getting paid to poison the sport into perpetuity?
A reminder, only two men in the field have broken 2:05 before. And only one of them (Tsegaye Mekonnen) is in the lead group.
I bet we will see a world record! ...for 30k.
Note to rabbits, if you want credit for the 30km record, jog the rest of the race or the IAAF won't count it.
The two guys in yellow look pretty smooth. Going to call it for one of them.

Sunday-Thursday
World record for 30km is 1:27:37 from Berlin 2014. 4 guys share it, but I think Kamwaror is the one who was in first position.

Are we sure they don't need to work.
It seems to me there are 3 different types of people just as in America. Rich, poor and religious fanatics.
They either let the oil checks roll in (rich), stare at the camels out in the desert (poor) or plan jihad (religious).
