Holy sh**. Who is ROJO? I'm rooting for him. Did you guys see that? Someone's bib says ROJO.
Its all about you.
Bolivia runner Garibay with a best time of 2:07:44 from Sevilla in 2023 is legit and at five feet one inch and 110 pounds he is built for this course.
This race would have been so much more exciting with Kiptum :( this should've been his day
What the hell is Kipchoge wearing on his head? Has anyone seen Kenny B? Have we heard anything about his training? We didn't have time to have JG reach out to Jos Hermens.

At which km does Korir DNF? Or does he finish in 2:18?
Already at the back of the pack
Some guys seem to be staying off the pace like Moen and Meucci. Ozbilen at the back too, could factor if he's had a healthy build, something he's struggled with in recent years

Cooling headband.
Someone's missing out. A top elite could have grabbed an easy lead over this crawling pack.
Yes they would get to the hill, but at that point they could rest. The pack would take it easy on the hill too. So they would hold their lead for the most part.

4k in 12:39
First 20k is flat so it's a slow start
Climbing starts just after 15k

It's some kind of a cooler. Few others also wearing it..
it's an ice cube holder (not kidding) to keep him cool. A few other runners had them at the start.
The pack looks like an example of affirmative action at work.
here’s the link to the headband
Who tf is wearing Asics LOL
prediction for the first break away effort?

Read somewhere (probably some african online newspaper) about a month ago that someone in his staff said training was going better than the last two marathons but that's it.
Sondre Moen and Dr Daniele Meucci (PhD in Robotics from University of Pisa), running together.
