Shoutout to Gebru who paced her all the way till the Brandenburg gates. You could tell he was on the limits
He was awesome. Fully committed, and stepped aside in the last 500 m so that Assefa could receive the full spotlight.
She was supper strong, no sign of excessive discomfort, concetrated, and the way she was right on the back of the pacer who was suffering but making a great job, it is amazing, they were catching men like crazy. it seems she can go faster!!!
@@Fast__Snailyes I noticed this
yeah so she ran 41,7k with a train before her ... what a cheat ... despite of course doping specs ...
Gebru's pacing is spot on..
Before the race, her team was saying she was aiming for 2:12... which sounded insane, but holy cow! Now that she knows she can beat that, sky's the limit for her.
Depends on how long her doping regime goes undetected. Her "meteoric rise" isn't plausible in any way, shape or form. While it wasn't even hinted at in this video, it's clear what's going on.
@@yellowfolderHow is it clear that she is doping? Every performance at this level should be raising eyebrows, but are there any connections between her or the Ethiopian teams to doping? I personally think her performance is very suspicious so please elaborate.
@@yellowfolder this is sports at the highest level, they're all doping, the fact that they're doing it doesn't diminish their accomplishments
In the words of TRP ‘how is this possible’ LOL
Don’t say the sky is the limit when people went to the moon 😂
I watched the race from start to finish and could not believe my eyes. Assefa’s male pacer even looked more tired than her.
Just amazing race and we look forward next Olympic
There were several moments in the 2nd half when I wondered if her pacer was going to be able to hang on! He must have been so happy to finally wave her on past him in the final few hundred metres.
The Pacer was brilliant though the way he was guiding her to remain on WR pace with the hands was awesome the best pacing i have ever seen!!!
because HE ran in the wind all the time ... way easier hat she did
I ran exactly the same time as her on Sunday! In half marathon 😅
Those splits are just crazy
😂😂😂😂😂
When she kept speeding up I honestly thought she was going to blow out, what a phenomenal performance, mark my words, within 2 years we will see a female runner go sub 2:10
This has to be the most impressive world record of 2023 in my opinion.
and the most suspicious true the shoes are legal but as we have recently found out doping is still running rampant in all sports including endurance sports. Yup hope it was legal but even a casual runner knows the huge differences between 800m and the marathon.
@@michaeldennis2630 if someone is dearing to dope and get away with breaking the WR by this margin, it is crazy. So just appreciate the moment and let the officials worry about these things.
No, it’s Djokovic reaching 23. Grand Slams and now even winning the 24th
A woman averaging 5:02 per mile is insane. How many people can do one mile that fast? Male or female.
Okay, to be fair, 1 mile in 5:02 is not impressive, even for a varsity high school athlete (the California high school girl 1600m winning time this year was 4:33). But to average 5:02 for 26.2 miles is CRAZY.
@@randomoneforstuff3696 Um sub 5 (or 5:02) is a very impressive mile time. It's not for competition, but only a very small amount of the worlds population can run that fast which is what I think they were talking about. I don't care if you are in good shape and have good Cardio, you need to actually train to run to break that barrier. I honestly think most healthy males with decent cardio would struggle to run even sub 6 without some level of training for it.
@@randomoneforstuff3696to me its impressive when see that distance !😅
@@The_Taken_Names Indeed, I was talking about relative to competitive runners. The average American male would struggle to run an 8 minute mile.
The runner just 6sec ahead of Assefa is the Australian Liam Adams, who ran 2:08:39 at the Gold Coast Marathon 12 weeks ago. I have heard some mid-pack runners say the conditions were not as ideal as the experts suggested, which may explain Kipchoge's positive split but it certainly doesn't explain Assefa's insane world record. Thanks for the video.
She's 26 years old! 12 years younger than Kipchoge!
@@maysjiangexactly ..shes young and well trained. not so difficult
There was an article that kipchoge had issues with the shoe
I ran and it did get a bit warm. A lot of 'normal' people I know had big blow ups and barely any PBS.
@@crazyjdsprobably he wasn't in same fitness as 2022 also slight difference in weather but I'm surprised he still dominated and sent true performance to be favourite for 3rd olympic gold at 2024 Paris.
Last week that Adidas shoe was talked about because of its price,this week it's talked about because it's attached to a WR that completed shattered the previous WR. Adidas had captured marketing lighting in a bottle
And also became second in the women
@@jeroen1989??
That what u call unbelieveable marathon running from her.the strength of her was untouchable in that marathon. Looking to see big things for her next year.
This performance is out of this world. Imagine what time she could have done in ideal conditions. Even crazier is that she used to be a 400/800m runner and only in her 3rd marathon she completely shatters the world record!
One of the greatest sports performances I've seen in my life. And she didn't put her hands up those last few meters to celebrate, she stayed focused all the way until she passed the finish line.. This is the female athlete of the year!
@TodhiroMifuneSamurai
Spot on but unfortunately it may go an American.
I’ve been waiting for this video, the woman’s race was insane
Maybe it was a tranny. Got to watch out for imposters these days.
yeah I checked in the morning to see if Kipchoge set a new record and was bummed. Then I thought… wait! Maybe a woman broke a record! ohhh damn she sure did!
same
A 20 minute jump in marathons and then another 4 minute jump? That's damn impressive and obviously a touch suspicious.
It's not a coincidence that this happened just after the release of the latest Adidas super shoes.
Technology is now playing a decisive role in distance running.
Records now aren't comparable with those done previously.
I am not even sure how that time is possible. It's absolutely ridiculous. I don't care what shoe you are wearing. It is almost too unbelievable.
It IS unbelievable. Literally.
She on some kinda substance
Totally agree, could be using the shoes for her fast time.
If it sounds too good to be true then it probably is.
To put this performance into perspective this is much faster than the national record for the men’s marathon in many countries for instance the Jamaican men’s record is 2 hours 16mins 39 secs
holy cow that an insane improvement over the previous WR time.
little suspicious, no?
I think the negative splits are also very telling she is just juiced up on PEDs and could have run it even faster but didnt want to be more suspicious @@j4e339
Amazing coincidence that this coincided with the release of the latest super shoes, right?
@@j4e339very!
This is a fantastic achievement of Assefa. Nice to appreciate it by this video. However it deserves to stand by itself, no introduction with Kipchoge needed. He has his own place to be valued, but Assefa is clearly worth a stand al9ne appreciation.
At 2:50, the 4th place woman is displayed as having run 2:09:07. I think it should be 2:19:07
Your closing comment that she "might" be the favorite for Paris next year is so odd. She just smashed the WR by over 2 minutes. I'd say she's obviously the favorite!
Perhaps he meant that she might be the favorite *when the Paris marathon takes place*.
Yea 😂 only thing I could think is if he was thinking we would have to see how she does before the Olympics
You know how track and field is. Favorites switch up all the time, sometimes people get hurt, sometimes they don’t perform well cuz of their mental. She’s the favorite right now obviously but will she stay that way until Paria
Extra help was that she had a pacer until 400 meter of the finishline! But absolute bonkers time!🤯🤯
Wow!! It was so amazing to watch. Congrats Tigist!! You made my entire week!
Indeed absolutely ridiculous. By far the performance of the decade this is even more impressive than Kipchoge’s sin 2 hr marathon. I never thought I would see a woman running sub 2:12 in the marathon. Insane performance.
Her time would make her the 97th fastest American MALE ever! Just amazing!
just goes to show you how much better men are than women
Im sure some of those USA men, now identify as women. So they should actually hold the WOMEN'S WR😂
erhardtgerber2770 Cringe
Assefa actually caught up with Ward.
Ward then trailed (or ran beside) Assefa.
Nearing the finish line, Ward sprinted ahead.
I just can't wrap my head around Assefa and Kiptum.
I think we’re starting to see the payoff of younger and insanely talented athletes getting the full advantage of training in super shoes.
@@laneweber8478 If so, RIP current world records.
@@feetindagrass Potentially. There's been debate over if the new supershoes are more beneficial to training than they are on race day. Athletes have said that they recover better when they train in supershoes. so the next generation of athletes are probably training on a level that hadn't been possible until now.
@Total Running Productions
Thank you for all your great running videos. I love it!
Have you seen what Sifan Hassan just did at the Chicago marathon? And how she debuted her first marathon in London this year with a time of 2.18.33. Now 6 months later (6weeks after she won two World titles) she wins the Chicago Marathon. Can't wait to see Hassan and Assefa on the a major together! Please make a video of Hassan's marathon story.
This would have been the men's world record until 1965...
Extremely impressive
Amazing athlete, amazing record, nice video!
FYI, Tigist is pronounced Tig (rhymes with twig) and ist (rhymes with list).
It is NOT g as in (jar)
$500 shoes meant to be used only for one marathon??? That is insane. That would set a very bad precedent.
The Adidas Adios Pro Evo 1 she was wearing, which will be released soon, Weight 4.9oz.
Those are the lightest Carbon racers ever, and they have Adidas new Carbon Foot geometry thing underfoot.
I'm not saying it was just the shoes because God that was a superhuman effort in near perfect conditions.
Anothers in the race wore same shoes but were 6 min behind so...
Also a great win for Adidas.
Nike had a shoe like that 10 years ago. The Nike Mayfly was meant for 50k of racing. So you could run about one marathon, or multiple 10/5ks
The pacer was fundamental
For real. Greatest pacer of all time. Like a Sherpa up Everest! 🙌🙌
you mean essential*
should have given a shoutout to her pacer, he did a remarkable job right up untill the last 500meters
This is one of those records that leaves me speechless. Paula Radcliffs record stood for so long before Brigid Kosgei finally broke it. Then this girl destroys kosgei's record!!!!
Now we wait for the 8th of october I realy hope we have a new goat on the sport one still running and another already showing fantastic habilities
Awesome run but I expect that these shoes will be legal for only a very limited time. $500 for 1 race is a pretty big commitment.
Crazy time. Hope it’s all kosher
Hope it's legit.
I was surprised you didn’t create this video before the men’s marathon video
Recuerdo que en marathon olímpico de 1968 en México city, el ganador Mamo wolde, también de Etiopía hizo un tiempo de 2:20 . O sea que ella derrotaría a su compatriota. Cómo cambian los tiempos! Saludos desde México
yes,you are right;I am her country man!
This is right up there with the moment, the Mile first went sub-4min.
Absolutely insane performance. I love it!!!
this time I felt the athlete’s performance was completely worthy of your superlatives… her performance was truly amazing!!
Saw Assefa amazing race was really great pleasant surprise, this women did an amazing record; a truly really amazing accomplishment
Yeah, what an amazing run. Honestly, this year the women's marathons have been such a treat, thinking back to the London marathon.
Also make a video on 5000m female new WR
This was such a good video! Assefa is a beast!!
Wow, that was epossible running!
Combination of her physical capacity + Adidas Adizero Adios Evo Pro 1. It will give lots to talk about.
Are there any other athletic events where the best women are comparably competing with the men? I'm pretty sure that it would not be outrageous for every man competing in the 100m would beat the women's WR. But they also say that women's WRs have been improving faster than men's over the last 100 years so it's not too surprising that some overlap is appearing.
Hardly an athletic event but Olympic skeet used to be mixed gender event until 1992, when a woman named Zhang Shan won the gold metal. After that the rules were changed so that women no longer compete alongside men, and it took until 2000 before women's skeet appeared in Olympics.
@@taru4635 That's crazy. Seems like something more people should know about. The wikipedia article just has a couple of uncited sentences on the matter. Thanks for sharing.
Women are still “gaining” when it comes to sports, because for such a long time, they were not encouraged. Participation is still increasing and female-specific training and equipment is still being developed. So we are seeing rapid improvement in WRs for various women’s sports, whereas the men’s WRs tend to see rarer and only incremental improvement. I feel as this trend continues, we will get a more accurate judge of the actual gender gap - and for many sports, it will be narrower than we previously thought.
For specific sports, I can only speak to those I have watched. Ultramarathon GOAT Courtney Dauwalter has been smashing races all summer and regularly finishes top ten amongst men. In figure skating, there has been an explosion of young women able to consistently land triple axels and quad jumps, previously only landed by men, and the score gap is nearly nonexistent between the best couple women and the top ten men. These are the two best examples that I know of.
Its how you said it...500 dollars!!! 😂😂😂😂
But that's an insane price indeed.
Im usually a track guy, but her WR was incredible. She ran strong and looked fresh.
I have a question: Was she the only athlete wearing those shoes? Not likely. If not, how did the other athletes do, with their PB wearing those shoes?
She looked like she could have ran all day, didn’t even look tired after she crossed the finish line! Incredible
I think Kipruto also had them on actually, so not a guarantee for success... on the other hand, Amanal Petros ran a massive German national record in them. I think this performance was 99.9% Assefa and perhaps 0.1% the shoes. Strongly believing in them certainly didn't hurt her chances though.
No word of her pacer that was there until the last stretch.
Interesting article in The Guardian. It said Tigist agreed to not race for 2 years and then come out of nowhere to break the record and give credit to the shoe.
No mention of her dedicated pacer... 😢
When Abebe Bikila ran a world record at the 1964 Tokyo Olympucs to defend his title, he ran a time slower than Assefa. That is a testament to just how fast this women's world record is.
That's also really amazing for Bikila, I'm pretty sure that the training methods of that time don't compare to those of today.
But for her to beat the legend, it's a big milestone!
He was running bear foot😂
@@robelhabtamu3146no he wasn't in 1964
Rom 1960 he was bare footed, 1964, he was wearing road shoes ;) @@robelhabtamu3146
I like the way the times are broken down and all the statistics of runners.
Amazing. Would have been interesting in Kipchoge was wearing the new magic shoes too
2:50 I would like to say congrats to Zeineba Yimera for her sub 2 09 performance lol
Really good video!!! The only thing where i slightly disagree is that the craziest field of the year will be in Chicago next Sunday, it's not even close!!!
Very interessting your videos and information behind, like it! At 2:52min the time of Zeineba Yimera should be 2:19.07? Thanks for your work!!!
Wow, she really don't play! She just did her absolute best and gave her all! Iconic!
2022: finishes 7th at 8kg overweight
2023: drops 8kg and the rest of the field
ABSOLUTELY AND TOTALLY STUNNING!
GOOD HEAVENS!!!!!!!!
Thank you. I like that story about Assefa.
I saw it and I still can’t wrap my mind around it .
I am certain it was a typo, but at 2:50 in your video you have Zeineba Yimera’s results at 2:09:07.
I saw it too. Obviously that's a mistake
It's surprisingly very common
Nothing fishy about this 3 min WR. The self destructing shoes are just that good.
Kipchoge will always be goat and my hero, but Queen Assefa truly MVP for this race!!
That’s crazy!!! She crushed that record!
Those damned shoes!!... 😅😅
that was a dope race
Fr 💀
Yes! Dope as hell! 😂
Come on now.
"dope" 🤔
💯
I had the privilege of being there and whitnessing that. It gave me chills. (Seemingly) effortless, majestic beauty. Assefa ran on clouds like Kipchoge did. A day to remember.
I always thought it would be Letesenbet Gidey who broke the WR...
AMAZING!!! 👏👏👏
Truly amazing.
This is faster than Bernard Lagat's marathon PB lol. Although I think he moved to running marathons in his 40s tbf
43 :)
She absolutely smashed it. Incredibly strong new w.r
Charter member of the
That has to be the best woman's performance in athletics history.
2:50 Zeineba went faster that all others...?
Crazy performance again by an Ethiopian great.
The female Ethiopian athletes are crazy rn. From the 1500 to the marathon (having even some quit decent 800m runners)
Hassan going for insane triples.
Surprised you did not talk about tsegay running almost 13:5X as a women
And now this by assefa unreal
Well done Adidas! Now I remember this shoe... 😂
5 benjamins for a one-race shoe 😲. assefa just made adidas boatloads of money
Means the shoes are made for Marathon distance but this shoe could end up working best for 1/2 Marathon to Marathon just as well.
EPO is one hell of a drug
2:46 - wow Zeineva Yimera musta won with a time of 2:09:07! 🤣😅
This makes me wonder if kipyegon or tsegay could run 2:09
There's a typo on the race list where one of the records shows 2.09 instead of 2.19 at 2:49
It's time to install the Abebe Bikila Barefoot Rule
Respect to shoe designers
She "might be the gold medal favorite for Paris"?! I still don't think any of us have fully wrapped our heads around what a ridiculous performance this is. I believe that this is even more impressive than Kipchoge's 1:59! Infact, even if Kipchoge had run 1:59 in Berlin, this would still be more impressive. No one can convince me otherwise.
Agreed. Men are close to 10% faster over all distance WRs. So this would equate to a mens time 13 min faster or 1:58:53. Obviously not exactly but it is nuts either way
When you marathon debut @ 2:34 😭🙏🏼
What is name from the Assefa pacers
Congratulations to her, it was a really impressive performance that i enjoyed watching. I want to give her the benefit of the doubt especially considering how good Ethiopian athletes are but it is a tad suspicious to break a record like that with a running history like hers 🤔
DOPED 2 DA GILLS!
She could win a majority of national championships among the men with that time. Crazy. Guys breaking 2:10 gotta start looking over their shoulders.
It's Gotta Be the Shoes!
Drafting really help her.
