Nah, let's take a break and look at a completely different sport instead for a bit.
If you are in the UK watch the Red Button. If you are streaming try the Elite coverage link off

Canova just mentioned the other day that the Boston winner was routinely losing to Abel Kirui in training sessions. Is Kirui finally ready to drop a big one or is he still just a solid marathoner?
With two world championships and an Olympic silver medal, I think that he's alreay demonstrated that he's more than "just a solid marathoner." And it was encouraging to hear that he was running so strongly in training. But I'm not optimistic about his chances in a paced time trial with a 61:30 HM split, unless he lays off the pace a bit and everyone in the lead pack blows up, as happened in 2013 when Kebede came from behind to win.
Nope, I'm watching the 'elite' stream, but they're not showing any running at the moment.
What channel is the race on in the UK? I have a BBC 2 stream up and they are showing interviews.
It's on the red button (probably like 601 or something) or here:

Keitany still not letting up. The other women are still in sight behind her. I'd estimate her lead is only 10-15 secs despite blistering pace.
omg literally no one cares about the wheel chair race
...because you've zero idea what perfect human movement patterns actually are.

How do the Kenyans run so well with such terrible form? absolutely crazzy!
Well the so called Elite stream which should match the Red Button coverage seems to be broken, when I click on it I get an error message saying I need Flash but the main one (with Radciffe) is working
Keitany still motoring but as good as she looks, you gotta take the field right now over Mary winning this insane race

Chase back down to 4, understandably
Vivian Cheruiyot is about 10m up on chase pack, which includes Mergia, Kiprop, T Dibaba, Kiplagat. Cheruiyot looks like she may actually be gaining on Keitany.
