We really hope you read our women's preview as the 2017 women's field in London may very well be the greatest field EVER assembled for a women's marathon. It is RIDICULOUS.
Two Americans are boldly racing in it. We examing their prospects here.
Bekele The GOAT? Don't make me laugh.

So, you're resting and returning to your wet dream. You'll need to change the pillow case after your done pretending it is Sir. Mo Farah.
Don't need to see the H2H.
Mo has 4 Olympic golds and Bekele has 3 and 1 silver in the same events.
Advantage The GOAT Sir Mo Farrah
Don't try and tell me Bekele is better because he has a faster Marathon PR.
Mo jumped in 1 marathon in his life.
Olympics is where it counts. THE GRAND Stage.

How many WR´s do Farah have? How many runners of Geb/Tergat/prime Lagat etc caliber has he beaten in his wins? How many XC WC wins has he?
Bye, bye, idiot!

I predict that Paula Radcliffe will continue to be celebrated and no uncomfortable questions will be asked of her. She'll continue to preach from her high horse about doping and nobody will suggest she's a hypocrite.
Apparently the Brits are feeble-minded and lack critical thinking skills. They would rather worship a fake hero than demand integrity.
Will Mary Cain be competing?
"2011 & 2012 champ Mary Keitany, the second-fastest woman in history, is coming off a third straight New York City Marathon title and just PR’d for the half marathon (65:13)."
Don't start a sentence with a number. Journalism 101. I'll fix it for you.
"Mary Keitany, the fastest woman in history who hasn't doped, is coming off a third straight New York City Marathon title and just PR’d for the half marathon (65:13)."
Just wait till Almaz Ayana moves the Marathon, mate!

Associated Press Stylebook in their section on numbers:
• Spell out numerals that start a sentence; if the result is awkward, recast the sentence:
Twenty-seven detainees were released yesterday. Yesterday, 993 freshmen entered the college
• The one exception to this rule is in a sentence that begins with a calendar year:
1938 was a turbulent year for Leon.
