      He was definitely going for the world record on this marathon and would of gotten it likely if there wasn't water on the ground but as long as he stays healthy, it's only a matter of time for him to be the first man to run sub 1:58 seeing how this is only his 2nd marathon and already improving this fast

      ​@Steve Lau let's tackle sub 2:01 first. Then sub 2:00, then 1:59. Sub 1:58 is a long ways away.
      Sub 1:58 is 4:29 mile pace, his best is 2:01:25 which is 4:37 pace.

      ​@stevelau7694 apart from anything else that's happened, I don't think people know how insane they sound talking about sub 1.59/58 marathons, an approximate calculation makes the human limit out to be 1.57.58 - having said thst kiptum was almost the perfect marathon runner- but even then, to break a mark like 1.58 you'd need to be a comfortable sub 2hr runner which nobody will ever he

    Why they don't assign guys on bikes or motorbikes to deliver water bottles and whatever they need during the race?! It's doable like in many other sports, cycling for example. Also, Kipchoge team done this during the INEOS challenge of breaking 2 hours. This will just help the athletes perform better and prevent wasting time to pick up their bottles.

      @Edwin Karani don't think hes hating. When it's too good to be true it's too good to be true. Look at his resume. Lacks a lot of credentials compared to everyone he beat. He even did back to back 10k pb in his marathon. He has no world class experience has never won a major race nor anything before 2019 and from 2019 till now he hasnt done much. Yes he has dropped his 60 to 58 half marathon in 3 years but still nothing before this which is very unsual. Check the top 10 at boston or london and youll see what i mean re credential.. This is why most don't believe he is clean
