Maybe the announcers will know who he is this time.
I pray that Yuki beats Mo and Galen.
Let's go!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This is why the American record will go down. There is no way Galen will let Yuki win. Or Mo.
there will be no slow warm up in this race. Yuki will push it from the beginning. Mo and Galen better be prepared. If all three are ready and injury and illness free I going to put my money on some 2:04 s.

I predict a top 40 finish.
I wonder what Brett Larner's story will be after Flukey finishes minutes behind Galen and Mo.
I think he's capable of running 2:06 which puts him dangerously close to the Japanese record. If the pacers at Chicago aim for the American Record of 2:05:38, I think Yuki will definitely go with them.
This marathon just got interesting. With Mo and Galen running, it'd be kind of boring. Adding Yuki into the mix just made this fun.
Lol Yuki will not be a factor unless disastrous weather occurs like Boston.
He runs too many marathons to be fast, and he ran 2;08 back in 2011. he is 31 now, and he recently ran 2:22
This dude has run around 82 marathons in his lifetime, and really does not give his body any time to rest. He would be a lot faster if he only ran 2 marathons a year.
He is built for endurance, and has great aerobic ability, but lacks speed intensity/speed endurance to really pop as a marathoner.
In a slow, hilly, tough weather marathon he would definitely be a threat, but he is not built to go out a WR marathon pace.
I would love that.
I'm a little disappointed only because I was hoping he'd try for the Berlin/NY double.

Nope it’s going to be a long grind to the end. Galen will grind away at Mo. Mo won’t have anything left. Galen is smart. He won’t let Mo sit and kick.
Yuki will not push the pace, because the pacers will do that
He also can't win unless it's extremely cold and/or rainy, which could happen
Who’s pacing Mo and Galen?
