1:28. CJ did not jump out front on the last downhill. Real Racing to start out. Yegon, Kibet leading the pack.

Just talked to Weldon and Jonathan in the press room. There they are being fed the international feed with Larry Rawson.
Is that available anywhere?

CJ starting to look a little cooked compared to everybody else in the pack.
Yup, his legs distinctly start looking like he's dragging lead when he start tiring. That and that thing he does with his hands as if shaking off wetness.
Molly still looks like she has it together even if far from leading.
women's CR is officially toast
I actually thought Molly just looked like she was suffering pretty hard

‘All of the best…medaling’ ??
Not in the Olympics. Put more than 3 athletes from East African countries in the Games and neither Rupp nor Molly medal.
Did Rupp and Molly lose to 3 Kenyans and 3 Ethiopians and medal? That's impossible.
Nah. It needs to be optional at this point. Many agree. Take it to the official thread on this topic.
As if having to watch 4 events at watch isn't enough (men's women and wheelchairs), let's throw in mile highlights. My god, who comes up with these decisions?
NBC feed down for anyone?

I feel like she usually has that look.
Any mention of the current World Record holder that is on pace to set yet another World Record?!?
Nell and Molly side-by-side in 10th and 11th at 25K. 3 min back from the leaders, 2 min back from 4-8. 23 seconds back from Charlotte Purdue from UK in 9th.

"We're going to broadcast the Boston Marathon, but how can we do everything BUT broadcast the race? How??"
Dark Sky is reporting they are running into a 6-7 mph head wind. And the times are still fast.

Seriously- Letsrun has to come up with a list of what they shouldn't and should do and get it to everyone who tries to cover races. I always ask- Who comes up with these decisions?
Like- showing the winner prance around while others are crossing the finish line.

There's a ton of dead time in a marathon. No problem with that decision.
Any reason why they can't add a little map at the bottom showing where on the course whoever is on screen is?
Like I'm going back and forth with the app, clearly the technology is there to combine the two
