Shalane Flanagan just shocked the marathon world .. I mean she finished #2 in NY in 2010 or so, but hasn't competed in one for quite some time.. And she just beat Keitany impressively.

Incredible.

That's two major marathons won by Americans in a row.

The men's race is going strong. Kipsang/Kamworor/Desisa and one other battling it out.

Kamworor pulling away .. he's Kipchoge's training partner, he's a beast from all accounts. Kipsang trying to catch back up to him.

Kipsang lost by like 2s .. awesome finish. Kamworor had a big gap on him, and Kipsang slowly closed it in the last mile, and was very close to pulling it off at the end.

Cheptegei's 15km world record attempt:

<a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=toY1L_fwJA4" target="_blank">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=toY1L_fwJA4</a>

some of the angles they used are incredible.. man he is flying. check 13:59, 16:00 etc.

much of this WR attempt by himself!! incredible.

https://www.walkjogrun.net/training/marathon-pace-calculator.cfm?distance=15&distanceunit=k&duration=00%3A41%3A17

15k in 41:17 I think.. 4:25 per mile for 9.3 miles.
