Through 15 min, it's Magdalenda ... and then everybody else (12:25 at 2 miles for the chase pack). MSNBC isn't doing all that well. I've never heard the word "stipend" pronounced the way they did. But I'm glad to have the opportunity to watch it. I'm also surprised they nearly admitted they didn't have people on the course to give them splits...

At 25:00, Magdalena has a 62-second lead on pace for about a 2:32 or so, broadcasters said. Not a "great" time - but she's ALL by herself. Can she handle it? My top 10 says no...

Chase pack begins to break up at about 35 min. Elva & Deena, and Blake Russell stay in front of that pack. Gonna be neat to see how fast the 2nd half of this race is for the eventual top 3.

Impressive running for Mags. Deena better run a solid second half to make sure she gets in.

Deena's looking good through 81:00. Still leading that chase pack. Can Magdalena keep this nearly 2-minute lead? It's a lot harder running out in front - knowing EVERYONE is behind you. We'll see. Impressive and ballzy, to say the least. Going for my run. It'll all be over with by the time I'm finished.
