Official Tokyo Marathon Thread

Race is on NBC Live Extra and NBC Live Extra App in USA

Still waiting for coverage to begin.

Stream is here:

This may seem really minor, but does anyone else really appreciate the KM ticking up on the side of the screen? I feel like with a lot of US broadcasts, I often find myself trying to figure out exactly where they are at.

Does anyone have a link to the live tracking/results. I can;t find it on there site but know they have had it in previous years.

I'm based in Canada and can't find any working stream. :(

Coverage has been knowledgeable & entertaining. Why cant the USA have nice things?

Who are the commentators please?

That's last year's replay. :(

Ah crap my bad!

One is Brett Larner, not sure about the other. Completely agree that this coverage is excellent so far.

23-year-old debutant Kenta Murayama of Japan is the sole non-African in the lead pack right now. They came through 10k in 29:38 (2:05:02 pace).

Only flaw with the broadcast is that they've completely ignored the women's race -- have they even mentioned it? That's the issue with races that start men and women at the same time -- much harder to get cameras on women's race and talk about it. Otherwise I've enjoyed the broadcast.

Is that Brett Larmer? i hope not. Ugh.

Finally got to the women's race. Edna Kiplagat currently leading the pack behind a wall of male pacers. No idea of the pace.

need to get out for a recovery run but this is pretty interesting to watch. He's still on 2:05 mid pace at 19km with the lead pack I think
