      It was WR pace fast yes, but compared to previous races where Kipchoge has done similar, not overtly so - I don't think so.
      If it was hitting the wall, we'd have seen that later on in the race more, not at 20k.

    Hey, guys whats your thought on this ??
    ...World Run Championship, which would showcase the global talent and excitement of running as a sport.
    Similar to the Cricket World Cup and the FIFA World Cup for football, the World Run Championship would bring together nations from around the world to compete in various running events. This event aims to elevate the profile of running and provide a platform for athletes to showcase their skills on an international stage.
    Here are some key details and comparisons to existing sporting events:
    Format: The World Run Championship would feature a variety of running events, including sprints (100m, 200m), middle-distance (400m, 800m), long-distance (1 mile, 3k, 5k, 10k), and marathons. The competition would be structured similarly to existing World Cups, with group stages followed by knockout rounds leading to the final.
    Global Participation: Like the Cricket and Football World Cups, the World Run Championship would be open to all nations, providing an opportunity for athletes from every corner of the globe to compete against each other.
    Grand Opening Event: The World Run Championship could kick off with a marathon involving all participating countries, serving as a grand opening event to symbolize unity and the spirit of competition.
    Broadcasting and Spectatorship: The event would be broadcasted globally, allowing fans from around the world to follow the action. Stadiums hosting the competitions would draw crowds of spectators, creating an electrifying atmosphere akin to other major sporting events.
    Promotion of Running: By establishing the World Run Championship, we aim to promote the sport of running and inspire participation at all levels, from grassroots to elite athletes. The event would encourage a healthy and active lifestyle and serve as a platform for aspiring runners to pursue their passion.
    I believe that the World Run Championship has the potential to become a flagship event in the world of sports, attracting widespread attention and excitement.

    I honestly think Kelvin Kiptum would have displaced Eliud Kipchoge in this era’s GOAT discussion if a) their careers had spanned more of the same years OR b) Kiptum had not died so young. As it stands, I find the channel host’s statement that Eliud is Absolutely the GOAT of mens marathon to be a bit much. I’m not a fanboy of either, it’s just that Kiptum proved his speed and endurance. The man was truly a beast.

      You find it a bit much that kipchoge is said to be the GOAT? You're off your rocker mate. A world record is great but years of winning is even better. And let's not forget that 1:59. I agree Kiptum could have taken that GOAT status with probably just a few more years of racing

      ​@@George-nx4bphe did more yes, the 1:59 doesn't count though - Kiptum in just 3 races proved himself as a much better marathon runner, everything from his strategy, to his pacing to his stamina - and let's not forget his immense training regime. I don't know what 'greatest of all time' means to you, but if we're talking 'best who ever lived', Kiptum's your man

    This strategy has been used on track and on the road. To break the leader, the only way is to go as fast as possible from the gun, hoping to break the leader. It used to happen a lot to Mo Farah, or Bekele, the opponents were pushing the pace hard from the beginning to have a chance to win.

    He ran 1 hour for the first half and the second half in 106 50. The first half tells us his legs still have youth. The second half of the Marathon tells us that he is a warrior. Conclusion, Eliud Kilchoge is warrior that has seen many battles, his body treads on, age does throw daggers at him at times, some wounds deeper than others. But the scars will heal, and once again the warrior is reborn, defying yet again what is possible. Nothing is impossible. Believe

    Sure he hit the wall but I’d still not discount him at all for Paris. there are plenty of factors that can make or break the race of an (older) athlete when we‘re talking about maintaining the level of performance required to podium in the elite class. Even a nascent virus has the potential to turn anyone’s race into a disappointment on their terms. The guy turned in a 2:02:42 in Berlin less than six months ago… he ain’t done.
