Paula Radcliffe. Hopefully she's somewhere near her best and could break the course record.

Would love to see it and would love to see Ryan Hall win the men's. Unfortunately it's on the same time as the Dublin Seniors - damn you time difference!

Paula in leading group of six @ nine miles. Men just started.

Paula seems to mbe trying to make some sort of a move now, still 5 in the group.
But not for too long i guess, seems to be some splits in the group starting.

Slowed right down again mmmmm

Five American men in the top ten at halfway.

Paula leads a group of five at Mile 17 - getting interesting.

Yeah she's looking strong, it's a familiar course for her too so I'd imagine she's only going to get better too.

thirstywork

I disagree,if Paula was at her best she would be clear of this group.tulu to win in a sprint finish.Radcliffe 2nd or 3rd.
might have egg on my face in 25mins:P

asimonov

Be good to see tulu win, 37 and 6 kids!

Ok...so four of those were adopted...

thirstywork

going to be a great finish...........

Radcliffe gone......

True, but i though she looked bad a few miles ago when there was a slight break and looked better for a while, but not looking so good now... going off the back,
Seems to be limping slightly but hard to tell with her.

Blazer

did the marathon last year..sorry I didn't go again this year.
5 friends doing today..all seem to be going well although one guy seems to be stuck at mile 6..hope nothing happened to him or his chip

RacoonQueen

asimonov

Oisin11178

I jinxed the french girl:)
Tulu to win, she has the experience.

shels4ever

tulu for me too.

thirstywork

Tulu is a cert to win in a sprint finish.

thirstywork

petrove looks like she will collapse

Slogger Jogger

Tulu looks so relaxed.

Keb looking strong too. Another runner leading wearing the 'armlet' yokes. Farah won the great south run wearing them last week. They must make you go faster

thirstywork

First American win in a long time.think Meb moved to America when he was fairly young,went to high school there.good interview here:

Interesting that the men's Dublin marathon was won in a faster time than New York.

Transform

Yeah,but NY is tougher,way more hills and the breeze was in there face for the majority of the first half,all on concrete aswell except the iron parts :eek:
I reckon you could allow 3/4 minutes in comparison to Dublin

An Irish girl finished in the top 25...Jill Hodgins ...2.52.21...

a great time ...she is an ex hockey international ...I think her 3rd marathon having done Dub last yr (about 3.20) and Toronto ( about 3.10) ...she has been placed well in the Adidas series this year
