I watching it both on the BBC and NBC Sports. BBC is about 3 seconds ahead and has Paula R and a few others.

As in "men's style" rather than spandex? Who knows. More class?
Why do men always wear them?
5 Kenyans leading through Mile 1 - no split given.First split will be 5k (!) apparently.
Anyway a Canadian can watch this, or only for those in America and the UK?

BBC on WatchAthletics. Paula and some guy.
NBC Live Extra is working fine. Don't know who.
Still 5 Kenyans leading a big group. No time for 2M either.

Rain just started. On and off. But relatively strong at some points. Still constant winds from south (based on the flags around the castle).
Everyone who said it would go slow was wrong.
At least for the women.
Hopefully Mo doesn't do his Jedi mind tricks on the Kenyans to make them run 5:00 miles.
Is there a womens usa team?

NBC seems to have just one British guy, so it gets a bit boring listening to him.
10:38 at 2 miles. Kenyans 1-5. Every American except Hillary Montgomery is in the lead pack though Kellyn Taylor is starting to drop.
Almost no spectators at all along the course.
16.31 5k Kenyans leading

There are some. Sara Hall seems to be running.
Molly Huddle preferred to run and cheat in NYC for $$$ last weekend over representing the US.
Karoki is apparently in the form of his life while Kam, reportedly, is in total warrior mode. Meanwhile Mo is his usual dismissive self openly wishing for rain and wind hoping for the conditions take down his rivals.
Kam for the win and you can take that to the bank.
Arm carriage huge difference Kenyans to others (esp. Japanese). Are they told to hunch up like that? We were always told that was a no-no. Caused "tightening of the shoulders".
Starting to break up now just Kenya and Ethiopia group of 10
3'19/1h09'45" pace at 5k
No live ticker apparently?
21:20 at 4 miles (5:26 mile 4). It's down to 5 Kenyans and 5 Ethiopians up front. As the announcer mentioned, no non-African-born woman has medalled since 2006.

The Japanese girls have been dropped. Lead pack down to 5 Kenyans and 4 Ethiopians.
