4 leaders are running 40-42 sec laps. This is a 2:19:50 - 2:26:50 pace. On pace to break the existing 2:27:21 record.
Advantage of racing indoors is that they can get water every 200 meters!

Interesting that that are running clockwise. Will this give them a directional record even if they don't get the overall record?

I must say I'm a bit surprised I've been watching the relay races the last 5 minutes. People are running around 3:20 who are finishing up now.

Clockwise for first hour - switch to counter clockwise for remainder.
-
The guy in yellow is splitting his watch every lap.
-
I enjoy a dude riffing for 2 1/2 hours
-
I can't look away.
-
I've been in a class all day so the thing is on mute but is one guy just sitting on the other and waiting to outkick him? Every time I switch over, one guys is right behind the other.
Please don't tell me some guy is going to leech on some other guy for 200+ laps. -
Dude is on sub-2:22 pace, he may actually sneak under 2:20 if he keeps with the sub-16 5K pace.

Is this a BQ?

Malcolm's going to break record unless he fatlers. He's like a minute ahead of 2nd. -
World RECORD!!!!!!
-
Why is John Oliver doing the race announcing?
-
2 people beneath the old WR, it looks like that bonus certainly worked its magic.
-
Looks like Allie will be smashing the women's record as well.

Top 3 from timing site (they time to 1/1000th)
1. Malcolm Richards 02:21:55.711
2. Anthony Migliozzi 02:24:02.118
3. Calum Nuff 02:28:52.346
I missed the finish. Where do they finish? I assume it's at the finish and they don't start on the start line? -
Allie's website is down: https://alliekieffer.com/
I think this will be a marathon PR for her. -
She just finished in 2:44:43 or so
-
She crushed previous record
2:44:43.988 so I assume rounds to 2:44:44 -
Think its her first marathon
