Race is on WatchESPN or ABC 7 in NYC.
The women's race starts at 7:18 am and the men at 7:30 (idiotic start times as they'll finish very close to each other, in reality, the men should start first).
Men's race preview is here:

I was running on the west side highway tonight. There was a pretty brisk tail wind in tgecrace direction. If that's the case tomorrow morning , there could be some fast times.

Did you even get an explanation from them why they chose those start times, or did you seriously just call someone an idiot without a chance to defend themselves?
I'm usually not a fan of the brojos drunk posting, but there is no need for a chance at an explanation.
This is complete idiocy- you won't get a full view or complete feel for either finish!! It isn't men vs. women, in this case it is just awful for the sport (unfortunately using a phrase beaten to death by rojo).
What do you pigs have against women?
Why do they now call themselves "Watchespn" when, in fact, they keep you from doing just that. They should call themselves "Payespn" or "holdhostageespn"

It might not be that bad; the lead woman should finish about 6:30 slower than the men's finisher (judging from 2016 results). So having the women start 12 minutes earlier will give the lead women about a six minute window of unimpeded finish-line time before the men finish.

And WHATIF the MEN shave 6 minutes off the world record? THEN WHAT? The MEN will be trampiling over the women as the women will be getting in the way.
Latest weather still looks decent, wind chill only 26 and those 10 - 20 mph winds (looks like closer to 10mph) will be favorable for most of the race. Streets all clear/dry. I got Carrie tollefson & a local shill (not bad so far) doing commentary. Why not more love for Cragg. LR poll still only has her at 7%.
Yeah the coverage hasn't been terrible so far on ESPN app.. looks like during commercials they will just show the race on the app
WABC just brought in Jenny Simpson who'll do all the tweeting. I like her but glad Carrie is doing the call. Jenny's husband is racing. Looks a bit more windy than earlier. Jenny & Molly calling a Huddle victory
They keep showing replay of Huddle winning while throwing out that left hand, looks pretty egregious
Cragg right out to the lead
Nike Spring shoes on Cragg.
Desi & Cragg to the lead, Huddle sandwiched between right behind
