    Think I saw TRR about 10 yards down the road from Paula. Blue and white singlet. Anyone else?

    Yeah definitely him. He has the Paula Radcliffe circus just behind him. Which is a good thing, knowing him, even if he's completely fooked he'll kill himself trying to not get beat by her

    I wonder is that a net or gun time for meno? Can't figure why he's consistently 1:30 minutes off sub 3? Or was he planning a good negative split? Great performance by Kipchoge, that Kipsang fella has no pedigree!

    He pulled out of elite race and changed to champs race to use it as training.

    In fairness it's getting a bit ridiculous the amount of time they are focusing on Radcliffe

    He's not aiming for sub 3 afaik - just a PB

    Will need to dig deep now though. 30k split had a bit of a slow down. Currently predicting 3:02:25

    Edit - Current PB is 3:04:41 so he has a bit of room to play with.

    Yeah c'mon Niall. I hope that slip was just a bump

    I'm predicting a sub 2:34 finish from the Turd

    Disagree. She's a complete legend and deserves all the media attention she is getting. She'll be done soon and then they can start interviewing those dressed as chickens and postboxes.

    Seems to have times his move perfectly


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,049 ✭✭✭Brianderunner


    TRR passed me at 40k at least 200m clear of the Radcliffe posse and looking strong


  • Registered Users Posts: 7,695 ✭✭✭Chivito550


    Possible Spider-Man world record there.

    Is she the first lady in her category?
