Unlistenable , garbage, American coverage with likely no mile splits, 5k sits, distance displayed.
Ugly, grey course, in and ugly city
Slow race
Weak elite field
Worst world marathon major
How do people cope with the commentary and race analysis? Awful
Will watch, but it's needs a major overhaul
Obviously this take is a little too negative, but American race coverage really really really sucks and it amazes me that they can't step it up a bit. Need an elapsed race time display, need split breakdowns, need dots on a map that shows where each favorite is on the course, need color commentary from retired or non-racing elites, etc. on par with what the TdF has always offered with Phil Liggett.
Doesn’t feel like a mainstream event as does the NYC Marathon. I follow it because I know people running but for the general public the race doesn’t exist.
Really ridiculous how they make the 1st and 2nd place runners diverge dramatically like half a mile before the finish line. Who are they to determine the second place woman won't summon a final kick to win at the line? It's 26.2 miles for a reason people! Let them race to the line!
