KIPCHOGE.

well under WR pace. incredible.

BUT, he's down to 1 pace maker (BOIT - great job man) at 20+ km.. and no one is anywhere near him.

Kipsang is running a very intelligent race... he's chasing Kipchoge, closing the gap on him after being 1m+ behind.



Kipchoge looks so incredible now.. he's basically on 61:00 pace?

2:01:40 (-1:17)

unreal.

2:01:40 for Kipchoge. That's a new WR, 1:17 faster than the previous WR.

In the last 50 years, the marathon WR has dropped like ~6 minutes total. Today, it dropped by another full minute, and more.

That's absolutely mind blowing.

Kipchoge & Kipsang are really refreshing "athletes". Always look so damn happy, especially Wilson Kipsang. They approach competition & training with alot of "joy & happiness" it seems.

Great little interview with Patrick Sang at the end.

"Vegan Broscience" has some really incredible footage.
