Looks like cool, dry and cloudy with little wind. Not bad, eh.

On the official site you can track your 'favourites' by name or number.

Jebuz and KC hand in hand through 5k in 18.55. A little slow but to be expected in the first 5k.

Put it this way, I haven't ran a marathon since

KielyUnusual

Maria through 5k in 18.05 (2.32.30 pace). Catch up lads.

KielyUnusual

KC puts on the after burners and hits the 2nd 5k in 17.57 to bring predicted time down to 2.35. Jebuz with a slightly quicker pace of 18.41 (2.38 pace). No Boards love story today it seems. Maria, the machine that she is, hits another 18.05 to maintain 2.32.30 pace.

she usually goes out quite aggressively while KC usually heads out a little more conservative. That's a fast 2nd 5k split for him and is probably a minute up on where he was last year so looking goof for a PB all going well

I'm off to expo so keep updates coming please

Looks like John eves is running with Maria. Gary crossen in their too, although a little back from Maria. Knowing Gary, he'll run a negative.

I'm off in about an hour so hopefully someone will pick up the slack for both our convenience.

I prefer predicted finish time with all my updates. Any other requests trr?

Itziger

Banana boy gone out fairly snappy with 10 kms of 4.09 pace for a predicted 2.54 finish.

skeleton_boy

15km

Maria - 54.03 (2.32.02)
krusty - 54.32 (2.33.22)
jebuz - 56.09 (2.37.55)

Itziger

Hope Krusty settles down now, he's hardly going to keep ramping up the 5k splits from here to the end, is he?

KielyUnusual

Gary picks it up again with a 17.40 to bring predicted time down to 2.33. Maria also picking it up with a 17.53 for predicted time of 2.32. Paths might cross here soon. Jebuz too with a quicker split of 18.32 for predicted time just under 2.38. No significant wind today or any real elevation changes so I'm guessing we can take the times as they are and pretty much ignore mitigating factors.

skeleton_boy

20 KM

Maria - 1.12.31 (2.32.58)
krusty - 1.12.32 ( 2.33.02)
jebuz - 1.14.44 (2.37.39)

krusty and maria hand in hand. Jebuz the steadiest of the trio through this split.

EDIT:

Half

krusty - 1.16.26
maria - 1.16.34
jebuz - 1.18.51

Krusty overtakes Maria.

KielyUnusual

20k

Gary settling in to a rhythym with an 18.00 5k (2.33 pace). Maria with her slowest 5k of 18.28 (also 2.33 pace). Help each other out guys. Jebuz with a consistent 18.35 to maintain 2.37 pace. Solid stuff.

tunguska

Maria and john eves through halfway in 76:04. Asimonov running solid splits aswell.....

Itziger

Bahanaman's splits are like a machine!

4.09mpk all the way. Just needs to hold it together now.

yes, I'm aware 'just' isn't the right word..... but you know what I mean.

Itziger

The leaders chuck in a 2.45 and a 2.49 km.

Imagine you're hanging in there at 2.56 pace and that happens!

skeleton_boy

25 KM

krusty - 1.30.23 (2.32.32)
jebuz - 1.33.14 (2.37.21)

Solid from the guys. No split form Maria. DNF?

EDIT: Still no split for Maria. Hope its a technical fault, would be a shame if she has to pull out.

Itziger

Maria seems to have dropped out for me too. Shame.

Emer is going well. On for a very comfortable sub 4 at the moment.

KC doing very nicely. Bring it home folks.

pistol_75

Gerry Duffy knocking out very consistent splits. Just inside 2:50 pace after 25K.

Itziger

So, this is where all that training come into play. Gary can hopefully stay with 3.37 pace now. Bahanaman continues to churn out the kms very consistently.

GuitarMusic

The commentary on the live feed is the worse I've ever heard.

skeleton_boy

30KM

krusty - 1.48.24 (2.32.27)
jebuz - 1.51.43 (2.37.08)

Krusty with a slight increase in pace, very solid. Jebuz puts in his quickest 5k split of the race.

This is where i'll start hurting. Give it socks guys!
