Looks like Alphafly taking up the top 5 spots in the mens...
Really hope Riley catches up to add some excitement to the finish. Four guys battling the last mile for two spots...
Calling it: Rupp, Korir, Riley
Trump is trolling us because of that dreadful Trump thread. Time to delete it!!!!!!
NBC in Washington State is back. Thanks for that NBC.
This women's race is pretty good. That's a large pack at 20 miles. Really wish the coverage included projected finish times.
LET'S GO EMMA BATES!!!!
remarkable to me that women could go out on 2:40 pace and still only have 12 left at 20 miles. we're just real bad at marathoning huh?
The green of Alphaflys have replaced the pink of Vaportfly. Less gay.
Yeah. This race is heating up now! Can Abdi hang on and stay in the mix?
"riley running alongside the 2 army athletes" are you high?
Riley looks great. Battling Abdi for 2nd. Korir fading.
Colin Bennie and Marty Hehrir representing Syracuse well.
I know Walmsley will be dumped on for fading, but 2:14 is a good first road marathon for an ultra/trail specialist. Will be fun to see how this marathon training translates to trail fitness.
Lol, Jake Riley makes his move for 2nd!
Sisson getting dropped in women's race. Front pack has 7 in it.
Abdi, Riley, and Korir battling for 2 Olympic spots on mens' side.
"Riley is running the Trials without a sponsor.
“There was the option there to talk to a couple of companies,” says Riley’s coach Lee Troop. “…Take away the Olympics, if it was any other year, you’d be sitting down, you’d be trying to get the best deal we could. But being the Olympics, and knowing that the majority of athletes on the start line are going to be in the Alphafly or the Next% or the Vaporfly, there’s so many unknowns.
“I would hate if Jake was to get himself into a contract situation a month out or two months out before the Olympics, and the top eight guys are all in Vaporflys and he’s not, then [there’s] that dilemma of, well, if I had been in them, what would have happened? I’d hate for him as an athlete to have this question that he’s got to ask himself for the rest of his life.”"
