13:48 in 5k, this is totally insane.
There was supposed to be a 61:00 half group and a 61:45 half group. But really there's just one group running 58:14 pace.
There are nine guys up there, including Farah.
No way Farah should be going out this fast, but the problem is if he drops off now there will be no one to run with. He dropped back about 20 meters a little while ago but when he saw he was going to be going alone, he sped up to join the lead pack again.
