It's on @ 9 AM (in the Philadelphia market. Check your local listings.) Boston was rebroadcast a bunch of times this past week, so there should be plenty of other opportunities to catch it.

I just discovered that our Verizon FIOS (Northern Virginia market) now carries Universal Sports on CH 464, mixed in with the local channels such as weather. They are showing a two hour program so I guess they will edit out a little.

The process is the goal.

The commentary was terrible though. I assume it was from Eurosport.

The elite woman's video has a man and woman commentating -- I don't know who the woman is, but apparently her name is Jo, and she was going to debut at London but got pregnant. (I'm watching it right now -- 40min into it.)

It's a 5k. It hurt like hell...then I tried to pick it up. The end.

Jo Pavey. She was 12th in the 10,000m at Beijing, 5th in Athens at 5,000m. She's run 14:39 for 5k so it will be interesting to see how her speed translates to the Marathon when she comes back.

The process is the goal.
