Chumba: “I’m not sure why I was the one whose visa was delayed. I’m yet to meet with the people who are responsible. Whether it was intentional or not, I will not let anyone take the title from me easily. I came here with one purpose and that is to take the title and go home a champion, nothing less,â€

Anyone excited besides me? I"ve got the local coverage streaming on my tablet and the NBCSN stream on my phone. Dual streams so I can figure out which one I like better.
Damn we forgot to make our official picks. Jon, want to do it now?
I wanted someone to talk to the guy who nearly beat Mo Farah at World Half.
The live stream is blocked internationally.
Live stream shows black screen for 2 seconds. Nice work.
Women's lead group passes through six miles in 32:02
Tuliamuk, Hasay and Jorgensen continue to lead with Hall a few meters back...the dynamics of this lead group are fascinating

I feel like it's boring, but I'm leaning towards going chalk -- Chumba and F. Kiplagat for repeats. But the Chumba visa issue worries me a little. Remember when Bekele got to Chicago late two years ago and struggled? The guy who almost beat Farah at World Half -- Abayneh Ayele -- is definitely one to watch. If I had to pick someone besides Chumba, it's probably him.
Who are you picking Rojo?
