Holy mackerel, Sisson looks to be in great shape. Nice to see.

Women
1st 5k - 16:58 - Lead pack of 7
2nd 5k (10k) - 16:29 (33:27) Lead pack of 6
3rd 5k (15k) - 15:42 (49:09) Lead pack of 4
Now it's down to Sisson and Huddle.
Huddle/Sisson pulling further away, 20 second lead? Scission seems to be leading for the most part. Will be tough to catch them as they work together.
Sisson looks great in more way than one
Sisson is sizzlin'. Running AND looking good.
Droddy 7th at 15 k

The claim is that they're not sending a senior mens team because the best athletes declined to run. That probably means Mo and Hawkins.
Come on nobody really expected Mo to run World XC. Yes he ran it early in his career, but no way he would run it now
Droddy on pace for a massive PR
I'm glad they are occasionally interrupting the advertisements to show the race.
Looks like a 1, 2 for sure but I'd be shocked if Molly lost to Emily. Hawkins still humping it, doing all the work out front
Lilesa sharing the lead now with Hawkins, Mekonen right there also. Emily & Molly side by side WAY out front
I don't think Lilesa wants it to come down to a sprint finish again
And Butchart & Vernon. The guy that finished second in the recent Intercounties XC (normally world XC trials race) is well pissed as he might not get another opportunity for a GB vest. Sure he will though but he has a good point. Bloody joke our top guys don't want to run - concentrating on their road/track seasons instead.
Men's splits
5k- 14:24
10k - 14:22(28:46)
15k- 14:30 (42:52) - Derrick dropped
54 minutes in and Leyisa starts to push.
damn i hate that terrorist lilesa
Hawkins takes lead back from Lilesa. 2 min. left in womens race! Still side by side Molly & Emily!
This is the worst coverage of a race I've ever seen.

I know the guy who got third on that race.... i can confirm....
Ha I forgot that BOTH these guys got outkicked by Lenny this year
Molly in lead 400M to go , Emily still there, Molly flying! Huddle takes it by a second. NICE debut by Sisson!
