NYC Half Marathon - live streaming + Men's field

Live streaming from 7.15pm Perth time - race starts at 7.30pm

http://www.nyrr.org/tv/

There is a fantastic field for this one.  My problem is Sammie's bed time is 7.30pm and I'm on story time tomorrow night.

Also - although he is not listed here, Lee Troop is running #26 but they will probably have names on their bibs rather than numbers.
