Great North Run - Official Thread

And gets beat.

Any live streaming in the United States?

Thank you

Great, it's on TV where I am. Helicopter shots right now.

I wish they'd stop talking in "miles". No one outside the UK and the US understands it.

I looooove Vivian. Mary K looks like a 1960s housewife with that hair.

Weather looks gloomy. Betsy Saina goes straight to the front. It'll be interesting to see how being coached by Patrick Sang has helped.

they ought to go metric, but I doubt it!

Mary's already stretching them out. Elite women already splitting.

Magdalena MASAI of New Zealand??? Who is she?

Keitany on pace for 67:1x

Here ya go!

Dewi Griffiths has a HM PB of 63:54 from earlier this year. He's running alongside the elites after 23 minutes of the race. YOLO.

I don't understand how in this age of split screens the women's race can get so ignored.

Epic ownage by Mary Keitany winning in 1:05:58. Vivian Cheruiyot second in 1:07.43

Caroline Kipkirui, who got singed by Mary's early pace staggers in third in 1:09.50.

EPO cheats 1st and 2nd.

God I can't stand the way the BBC fawns over Mo Farah. Just makes me want to puke.


Beats out Jake Robertson for the win a bit over an hour.
