4 favorites swallow up Desi. Does she slip in behind & go with them? Not if its out of her league.
Apparently Desi has been caught, though stream has shown nothing of it.
Desiree Linden got caught :(
Keitany to Desi: Hold my beer girl.
2:23 pace at 1/2 way. Desi letting the big 4 go.
Allie kieffer ran a 7:58 last mile,her race is done

Is it just me or are these new shoes promoting major heel striking? They are so bulky. Especially Kitata and Desisa.
Lelisa was always a heel striker
FYI, cheater fly shoes benefit heel strikers more than forefoot strikers.
Desi leads US women. Taylor 30 seconds back with Hall another 30 back of Kellen.

Prediction or you've seen it on TV, the Facebook stream is delayed, oh and now it's gone, great...
71:39 at Halfway as Des has been caught.
That is 4:11 Faster than last year when Keitany almost broke the course record.
So course record of 2:22:31 is in jeopardy for sure.
Desi will not get the course record
how do i watch this marathon? i don't have tv channel. anyone have a link?
Linden went through the half in 71:40. That tells me she's very fit right now as she very rarely goes out faster than she can handle. Of course, the second half of the course is tougher than the first.
Of course they didn’t show Linden being caught.

She's maybe ten seconds back.
As expected, Des is not GONE, so much for "come and get me and I'll tuck in behind you" peddled by that woman on TV...
Kitata took off again ? Didn't his manager say he wouldn't do it again this year ?!
Hall last mile 5:59
Ward running 2:08 mid pace Abdi right around 2;09 flat
