Cornelius Horn was fined but never imprisoned for attacking the runner from Brasil who led the marathon? He cost Delima an olympic gold. Where is the justice?

Looks like the lead pack is soon going down to 4. The Moroccan is hanging by a thread.
2 Kenyans, 1 Ethiopian and 1 Eritrian still left.

I'm glad they're starting to give Ritzenheim some coverage. He's got a shot at medaling. He can go forever. He is healthy and peaking right now.

Lead pack is 5 runners. Still 2 Kenyans, Ethiopian and Moraccan (sp?) and 1 other. These Kenyans are focused. They are keeping a very fast pace still.

And Hall is in 15th now I believe?
Both of those guys seem to be running their own races, which (at least to me) seems like the right thing to do.
IF a few of the lead pack guys hold on for the medals, well, neither Ritz nor Hall was gonna beat 'em on this day.
If most of the lead pack falters, they can be in a good position to try to take advantage.

No its getting confusing. The Eritrean dropped as well and the Moroccan is still hanging around. Then 2 went off the front. Kenyan and Ethiopean. so we have
Kenyan/Ethiopean
Moroccan
Kenyan
Eritrean

Interesting they are talking about the Kenyans not training much in hot conditions b/c they are always up at altitude.

Ritz is 2 minutes back. He needs fallout from the front. We've got 3 guys falling off the top 5. It's opening up for a possible medal for the US. Maybe that fast pace is starting to get to the leaders.
