Not sure what I'll do today - working from home, but also tracking runners on-line.

BTW, I can't find the link for live tracking by bib (not the text alert thing). Anyone have it?

Tracking link is here: http://www.baa.org/individual.html

It doesn't usually show up on the BAA site until right before the race.

Livestream link: http://watchlive.baa.org/ starts at 9:30

Eta- livestream doesn't work in Canada. Thanks Rogers. I have a VPN that let's me stream from the US.

There are some other unofficial link out there.

All our US affiliate stations are out of Boston so I'm watching it live on TV - very exciting women's race so far - fast!!! WR and CR pace, though early on. Looks like Lanni is running w/ Desi. Love Marathon Monday :).
We train more joyfully and productively when we focus on the now, rather than on our future race day performance. It's a long road from here to there with many miles to go. We need to run each one. Accept where you are today and simply be thankful for the work you've accomplished. KA

Looks like you can stream to an iOS device no problem. But a computer is no good.
Plan for 2017:
END-SURE 25k...done! 2:30:23
Spruce Woods Ultra volunteering...done!
Kettle Moraine 100
Western States 100 crewing
Falcon Fatass 50k
Superior 100

Cool! Who knew. :)

eta - so glad you found that! I would have never thought to check. I'm streaming it through my iPhone to the appleTV now and it's as good as TV broadcast.

If you have Chrome browser on your computer, just download the Hola Better Internet extension - you can then pick your country (USA in this case). No issues watching on my computer.

She finished 7th in 2:22. They said it was a 1-min PB for her. Just not good enough for the day considering Rita Jeptoo ran a course record 2:18.
