out of the core shortly.
Bronze medalist from Tokyo in the marathon American Molly,
Seidel 2018,
Boston Marathon Champion Des Linden.
There's the London Marathon winner from last year, Jocelyn
Jim, cos K. Do London marathon in April. This year will be
held in the fall. So she comes here
and we'll race against the reigning Olympic champion perished.
Chapchae cheer,
Molly side. All the bronze medalist
with the race to Boylston Street starting now.
Celebrating 50 years of women. Running the Boston. Marathon
are professional. Women are off the Boston. Congratulations to
all them and we wish them well,
and you see as those women.
Again to leave Hopkinton behind them. Some changes happening in
the women's race. As you see falling off the back here
a little bit. Molly, Seidel. Yeah, we definitely saw a surge
happen and she had to sort of make a choice. Do I go with
that and risk going
out too hard, or do I give them a little room? She's decided to
go with the ladder. She needs to make sure that she keeps
them in her sights.
We see now. She's falling back a little bit. It really, really
seems like, you know, Gypsy richer
And of course, gay are just dominating this race. It seems
like they're running, you know, side-by-side feeding off each
other and they're willing to push. They know that they have
the skill set to do that. And as you see everyone behind them
as in single file,
so, everyone is just trying to latch on and stay on but those
two are definitely pushing this pace, right? Molly, Seidel is
alone with her thoughts and with her bottle here as she
tries to regroup for the latter part of this race. This is
a tough position to be at you know, she's way. Had, we can't
even see another athlete behind her. She really has to work on
her own race. Listen to her breathing feel about this is
where she excels, you know, she knows herself really. Well,
she's used to doing some hard stuff alone.
Like so many of these athletes. They're just too fast to train
with a lot of other people. She teaches just stay focused. She
still has a chance to move up through the field, especially
in those later stages. She sees, estate
composed
the 90 minutes into This Woman's race now,
And it remains this group of three
London Marathon winner from last year. Jocelyne chip Koski.
The Olympic champion from Tokyo Paris, Jeff, cheer,
and Ava, valuation. A of Ethiopia trying to split up
this Kenyan pair.
They're running a little bit closer together. Now here,
that's not always been the case and when you come together,
there's risks of maybe getting too close together.
Yeah, you know that happens all the time on the track, but not
so much in the marathon, right? It seemed like it was
an accident. They both kind of laughed it off, but you have to
be careful. You don't want to take someone out especially
when you have the whole road,
but at the same time, if you want to draft and feel their
energy and stay connected, you want to hover pretty close and
so things like that happen, they both seem to shake it off
and here they go on their way.
It was a group of three but we're now down to a pair
battling for the lead.
The go back. Just a couple of moments ago,
a little bit of a surge by
chip to cheer
and yesterday.
Yeah, you know, that was just enough yesterday. It looks like
she's the one pushing a little bit that was just enough for
Joseline to cos K to say I'm tired. And, you know, that's
what happens in the end. I thought you're running along.
You're committed. You're
feeling good. But that's what's so crazy about the marathon,
which is beautiful about it. Horrible about it in one
minute. You can lose everything but she still looking good. She
looks like she's in third and she has quite a lead over
the chase pack,
but she's no longer in contention here.
You know, we are going to see a turnover switch. They already
have been running so fast. As you mentioned, those splits
have been coming down. The pace has been increasing,
but only one of them can win. So I don't think either one of
them are going to sort of suffer from the pace. At this
point. They have books, they pass a sicko sign, just a mile
to go. We're going to see that Banner soon.
Both of these women are capable of running a hard mile.
So it's going to be,
who can flip that switch, who can get the turnover going, who
can be take themselves out of the water. This long race. Your
body getting used to the space
and turn it over into a different type race. And here
we go, Paul.
The Olympic champion to the lead
with authority.
That was a move. She knew she waited, waited, waited. And
look at this. I mean, we're seeing it stretch out so
quickly. They have one mile to go. Now. I have to imagine that
Deputy richer and hold this. She knows her body. She's been
in high-pressure situations before,
Never Say, Never, but it seems like she X is executing this
exactly how she wanted it to go.
Well yesterday, doesn't look like she's
Given up at all. In fact, while she going to look around and
say, okay, where am? I am position to make the podium at
least no worse than second.
And it's not exactly as though she's giving up brown. Now, on
the Olympic champion. In fact, may be gathering to catch up to
her again. Here. It does look like she's looking at her. Yes.
She needs for, looks really good and open,
it's good to see these aerial shots. It gives us a better
feeling of what's Happening Here, but honestly, that Gap
hasn't gotten any bigger. Just sort of appeared over a few
seconds
and now it does look like she's slowly reeling back in
slowly getting back into her. Windstream.
Well, watch what happens when they come off the other side
of this road. Guess what? We have a new leader yesterday
back to the lead. This is so exciting. Now, they have to
have the two little bobbles. The two hills that don't seem
that bad when you're running easy. But Bill's the extremely
hard,
when you're finishing up. The Boston Marathon
who will have the strength to get through those Hills,
who's going to have the strength to Sprint down Boylston.
This is a true battle. They are both unrelenting. They both
want this, they both believe they can get it and they're
both, you know, we've saw a move there. We saw a move
there, now, they're both Gathering
and thinking, when am I going to go one more time?
You know, they have to have energy for one more time, but
they want to make sure they plan it right Jeff to your
cheer. She she already tried it. It
and she got back up.
So now, what when are you going to go? When is the move going
to happen?
Well, Paris chip should cheer with four straight Marathon
wins. Dating back to 2019.
And for
yesterday, what a win this would be for her the former
world record holder in the half marathon.
Behind that
epic performance. By Bridget cos K and the 2019 Chicago
marathon to finish second third in New York last November. Who
do we see the in third? Now,
Ed nickel got that woman knows this race. So well, you can
never count her out.
So Qibla got noun position to make yet another Podium
adding to her. Absolutely Splendid
and look at this t a change of order again. And that was
a little bit of it, a turn where one handle it better than
the other. But now yesterday has covered the moon. I am so
impressed by yesterday. She
doesn't have the same experience. She hasn't raced at
this level, as long as she's known more as a half marathon,
but she has believing in herself and she looks so calm.
If you look at her face, if you look at her leg lifts, she's
just floating along. She's looking,
but I'm wondering if she thinking
this is, I'm about to make my move. I know I can run with her.
You can't count out to Future. Obviously. She's right there,
but her face is showing a little more strange. She is
showing that she's working hard again. There. She goes left.
Turn onto Boylston Street.
I don't think this is over ball.
I think we're going to see something pretty special here.
As yesterday, slightly to the advantage. Once again
26.2 miles, they will need every one of those 385 yards
extended from the 26 miles
to decide this finish in the women's
marathon race at the 2022. Boston Marathon Abigail,
yesterday of Ethiopia the Olympic champion, Parish, Jeff
cheer.
I do think yesterday's knees are coming higher, which is
better in a Sprint.
You know, they're not they miss the course record for. They're
going to come awfully close in as soon as I say that just to
cheer comes through, she just has so much strength and so
much willpower. She is just willing herself
to throw in another served. And another surge.
And now Chip to cheer with the lead. And maybe a stride
can yesterday respond, one more time or will be the Olympic
champion coming through. They can see the finish line now, on
Boylston Street.
And when one of the greatest races in Boston Marathon
history, on the 50th anniversary of the first ever,
women's Elite field the best marathoner.
World on the women's side
is going to come through with the victory but needed every
stride to get to the Finish Line. First Paris chip to cheer
his, the Boston champion.
Are here is in Gigi
another strong performance. She ran well, last fall in this
race finishing fourth.
in her Marathon debut, she will
wind up here in the top 5 in 2021 and
Would love to be
a flat wall. If these two folks have a post-race conversation.
What a battle
to the Finish.
They were both so impressive. They both kept going for they
neither of them. Like
we're willing to conceal it. You concede to the other
pushing pushing pushing.
