Holy Shite!!
Holy Shite!!
Do they get a bonus for breaking the world half marathon record en route?
Radclife in her WR ran 32:01
Ridiculous
Keitany 31:17 at 10K, but Cheruyiot is only 8 seconds back.
Vivian showing her road inexperience.
Imagine going out on 2:13 place and being in 8th and 20 seconds back of the leader.
The second half will surely be interesting.
FYI, these were Radcliffe's 2:15:25 WR splits in 2005. So Keitany just went out 44 seconds faster than Radcliffe did.

My god. If she maintains this the WR is going to get SMASHED.
Paula Radcliffe sounds totally shook right now. Totally shook.
BTW, easiest way to get uninterrupted coverage is to use the BBC sport app if you have a smart TV, or use the app o your laptop. No switching back to the crap stuff. Race only
What must the pacer be thinking?? She must be crapping her pants. How is she going to get Mary thru even the 1/2 way point? This has to be faster than the plan, yes??
Sorry, those splits were from 2003. That was the year Radcliffe ran 2:15.
Maybe the pacers are on the juice? Must be a nice payday and not the same scrutiny.
Shook? They won't make it through half.
USA only 3rd in w4x200 final behind Jamaica and Germany
You've lost me a lot of cash, Mary. DAMN!
Keitany still rolling.

Yes. But let's not forget, on the track she is a bit of a pitbull who can work a pace like a metronome.
Unless she cracks (likely, but I wouldn't be suprised if she can withstand it) she is on world record pace as well. Either way, this is intriguing.
So Mary K now has the 5k and 10k record, right?
If this holds up, I'm going to have to walk away from the sport for awhile. Because we all know Paula was juiced to the gills.
RIP: D3 All-American Frank Csorba - who ran 13:56 in March - dead
RENATO can you talk about the preparation of Emile Cairess 2:06
Running for Bowerman Track Club used to be cool now its embarrassing
Rest in Peace Adrian Lehmann - 2:11 Swiss marathoner. Dies of heart attack.
Hats off to my dad. He just ran a 1:42 Half Marathon and turns 75 in 2 months!
Great interview with Steve Cram - says Jakob has no chance of WRs this year
