Looks like less spectators than usual.
DW 5k in 23:21
How does my office expect me to work today AND track my imaginary friends and elite runners?!?!
Looks like a controlled start for Dwave
Road Mile: 5:19 (2017), 5k: 17:09 (2021), 10k: 35:54 (2021), HM: 1:21:55 (2020), M: 2:53:18 (2021)

Ditto! We should get Patriot's Day off too!
I've got DW running 7:31's. Is that right?
m: 2:55:04 | 10k: 37:14 | 50mile: 9:35
Spectators are looking very thin. Tatanya McFadden is in the Newton hills, and there are stretches with no one at all. Women's pack is still tight 10 miles in. Men are more spread out.
Looks thin around elite women too. I was wondering if there could be more as time goes by.
DW is at ~7:31 pace through 5k. Projected for a 3:17. Probably starting conservatively.
"Working" on Patriots' Day is unpatriotic and uncivilized! However, it does give me a chance to wear my marathon tie!
I'll go with "'Huge Understatements' for 500 Alex"!
Dwave paces by feel, which should be a plus today. The headwind is probably slowing her somewhat.
Dug out from the 18 inches of snow at my house to come to work...and now I'm just watching the coverage on nbc. Too bad about the headwind but rooting for Shalane. Came in to check on and cheer on imaginary friends.
I can vouch for Jim, Dad, OMR, Max, RLK and Illana. They're real people. :-)
That had to have been the fastest porta potti stop ever.

Wow, this weather is AWFUL!
5:27 / 18:49 / 40:32 / 88:12 / 3:12
Disappointed the tracking doesn't give the split for that.
