Shalane is not too far back from the pack.

COME ON SHALANE

Where is she? I can't see her. These women are not slowing down.

[no0b]

I didn't even see her near the last shot of the women's lead group, because I didn't see her at ALL. I hope it was just a bad angle.

[jordylee]

Meb has a 1:12 lead over the main pack. Holy crap! He is flying!

Can I just say how I love that "Fuck Shit Up" has become our official H&F marathon mantra? Because I do.

Someone make it a banner.

I want it on a shirt.

[katinthehat]

I cannot believe Meb's lead.

They aren't on record pace - it's unbelievable no one is even trying

[boston340]

These commentators are awful!!

There's still a decent bit left. I trust nothing until the final 5k.

[biomaj5]

I am so upset. I hope she can come back.

[boston340]

2 miles to go for the women!

[clseale]

OK, don't yell at me, but I will still love it if Jeptoo wins again. After last year, she deserves a positive win here.

[Susie]

She's 16 seconds back at 35k, all 16 of which happened between 30k and 35k.

[lb2006]

no shalane anywhere in the screen

[starburst]

These runners amaze me. I can't imagine running one mile that quickly, much less 26.2!

[Deleted]

How much of a lead does Meb have?

[bostonmichelle]

Go Shalane!!! I'm going to have to hold back tears. Also I had a client come in in the last 10 mins and I missed all of this WTF

It was over a minute a bit ago.

I'm still numb over Shalane.  The leaders are hauling.

[noisemaker2]

Jeptoo is all alone. Amazing.
Devastated for Shalane.

I just heard :54?

[jordylee]

Jeptoo has really broken away from the pack. I love the last few miles of a race. Its amazing to me how they all hang so tight until right at the end.

[gt7301b]

Damn....Women's leader, Rita Jeptoo (KEN), at mile 24 ran a 4:48 split, one of the fastest of the race for men or women

[no0b]

Jeptoo just ran 4:48

::hangs head and cries::

[lb2006]

the commentator just said, "Rita is running faster than the T" - as it travels beside her

[jordylee]

4:47 for Jeptoo's last mile??!! WOAH.

[boston340]

"She is about to take one of the greatest left hand turn in sports." Uumm what else is there? Turning left as you run the bases at Wrigley field? Ok I'll stop bitching about the commentators.

[Deleted]

She ran an amazing race! Seriously, incredible athlete.

[katinthehat]

I really hope the feed cuts out again when Shalane crosses the finish line. I cannot take the heartbreak.

[boston340]

Wow wow wow!

[clseale]

I am so damn pumped about Meb. He smart. He's so freakin smart in his racing. Such a machine.

I will totally make a sign. I plan to spectate the hell out of it this year!

[mrshandy]
