@amirtz3342 The juice is the 'shoes'. They have springs strapped to their feet. Shoes are no longer just shoes. The athletes are still great, but their times cannot be compared directly to those of the past.
Kiptum's death still pains me, as we were robbed of an amazing talent who would have definitely broken the sub-2-hour barrier. Congrats to Ruth for being the first woman to break the sub-2-hour 10min mark!
Unbelievable 30.15 10K is just 15 seconds outside women's only WR. HM 64.16 is the fastest HM of this year. Incredible!! Second half 65.42 is the fastest ever in women's marathon. USA Z Panning men's ran second half 66.56 , C Albertson second half 64.57 and she finished ahead of all other USA pro runners. Stupendous!!
This is one of the greatest world records of all time. I didn't think it was possible - at least, not before Assefa - for a woman to run under 2 hours and 10 minutes for the marathon. She has SMASHED Assefa's world record by nearly *2 minutes.* I really don't know which is more impressive; Kiptum's 2 hour, 35 seconds run or Chepngetich's 2 hour, 9 minutes, 57 seconds run. UNBELIEVABLE.
Really impressiv but i believe we might only see the forefront of very strong times on the womens side. Because we have seen a number of impressiv 10K/10.000m Performance in the past 4 years and on the half marthon.

The womens Marathon World Record had it's home im Chicago for years before it went to Berlin for a brief moment. It's true he was flying and he is missed.
The record has fallen from 2:14 to 2:11 and now down to 2:09 in the last few years. Call me a skeptic but I’m not buying any of these times as being clean. This is just my opinion and it is not based on any other information except watching marathons and new world records over several decades. The second place female was almost 8 minutes back! It’s amazing how she was able to run, with her flag, so effortlessly after the race. Maybe it is a secret interval workout that nobody else has ever thought of before that allows her to run so fast.
I agree. I've been following the sport since the 1960s. I remember 2:08 being set by Derek Clayton in 1969, and no one even got close to that for many years. He said that he trained so hard that he sometimes pissed blood. Now every Tom Dick Harry (even Sally!) does this with ease. Sadly, athletics no longer excites me.
I wasnt expecting a WR for mens and women's today, i wasnt expecting a sub 2:03 for men's either. So i'm happy about the results exceeding some expectations for this event!
It's just incredible how far away even the top male athletes were from touching Kiptum's record set last year. Makes me wonder if anybody will break this for many decades to come. RIP Kiptum.
If Kipchoge's sub-2 marathon doesn't count because he had pacers then the same should apply to women. But, they get pacers who block all the wind for them for the entire race. Hmmm
Theoretically a male marathon could also be paced the entire distance (lol). But kipchoges pacers changed every 5k, it wasn’t an official competition and there was something about him picking up his nutrition
I think you misunderstood how that race worked. 1. There were rotating pacers, something that isn't allowed normally 2. It was a closed competition. Nobody else was allowed to enter the race besides Kipchoge and the pacers 3. There was a car that had used laser tech to show the pace of a 2:00:00 marathon so the pacers could have a consistent pace below 2:00 If you want a summarization of all of this, Kipchoge's sub 2 marathon didn't meet the IAAF requirements for it to be considered an official WR
And the crazy part is, while the temperature and humidity were great for a marathon, the wind wasn't. And Chepngetich still went under 2:10. To do that with the winds we have here in Chicago today just takes her time to another level. Like imagine what she could do if she didn't have to run into a headwind or swirling winds for miles. On top of that, she's self coached. She's got no one telling her what to do in training sessessions or helping with race strategy. Also the absence of Kiptum really stung, because if he was here, a course he knows, he'd be going for the sub 2 hour marathon.
After all the videos you published about recent doping scandals, I wonder how much was her percentage of improvement from her previous PR, especially looking at how “fresh” she looked while jumping up and down with the Kenyan flag! So color me skeptic!
Using how fresh she looked at the end is a stupid way of guessing she’s on drugs. Do you think she didn’t have to try as hard because she was doling or something?
She had a minute to rest. If you ever done running seriously. You know that even 30 seconds give you fresh legs for another set of 800s. This was pure joy at the moment. No statements yet but im sure this record gets approved.
I didn’t think Paula Radcliffe’s record would’ve broken by now if you’d have asked me a few years ago, now we’re under 2:10! What an exciting time to be a fan of running!
When i ran this race in 2019,Brigid Kosgei set thf women's record in a time just over 2:14. In just a 5 yr period, Ruth took over 4 minutes off that time !
A lot of doping? This is a load of hogwash! Obviously this has to be checked but Ruth has been running clean for a while and has had a clean record. This is not a bolt from the blue so a baseless and unfounded accusation of doping is unsettling to say the least... Is it because she's an African? Would such a brazen accusation follow an American athlete! Give us a break!
The pre race forecast showed a pretty stiff wind coming from the North that was supposed to start sometime after the race started. If they started heading north with no headwind then got a stiff tailwind after heading back south from Lakeview, that might have been the optimal boost needed to crush the back half. The down side is that last couple miles then turns back up north and slight uphill to the finish so have to fight the thing that helped half of the way.
That's my guess too. This does explain the fast 25km. But only about 8-11 km do have this honest tail wind. I guess Kiror did use it in to last section heading south before turning back into the city center.
@@paxundpeace9970 yeah it by no means diminishes a phenomenal showing. But had it been the opposite conditions it would have been tougher for sure. And, to your point it isn't a tailwind for a full half marathon. They would have had it after turning around from up north and again heading south after coming back from the west side. Either way it was an amazing showing by all!
I'm curious how that compares to men's timing. That's got to be better than a sub 2 marathon for men. I definitely did not comprehend her time at all when I first saw it. Idk if I've ever been this shocked by a world record.
So if Kiptums 2:00:35 world record is 1322 yeah it's gotta be sub 2 equivalent. Unbelievable performance. The points system adds a whole extra layer of fascination to it.
She wasn't in the top10 she came 11th :) still once again a huge jump. I always thought women should be able to run within 10mins of the men wolrd record one day.
@@andrewmurphy2289 Zac Panning finished in 9th place in the men’s race with 2.09.16 and Yuichi Yasui finished in 10th with 2.10.11 this places her in 10th place ahead of Yasui
I wish I could believe this was a legitimate time, but I just can’t. Too many doping violations coming out of Kenya. In no other event is a woman running times that would place that well in a world-class men’s field. I generally try and avoid suspicion of doping but this is just too much to ignore.
With respect, I don’t believe Kelvin would’ve broken his own record. Not taking anything away from him. It was amazing what he accomplished. But they are not releasing the toxicology report for a reason. Ruth is the real deal. Amazing woman!
A 2 minute jump in 2023 and then another 2 minute jump in 2024? Legend if she's clean... but with the scandals lately I'll believe it after an investigation
This was definitely an impressive race, I'm curious if previous women's record holders had pacers in V formation bringing her along for almost 25 miles?
Kelvin Kiptum's death is one of the greatest tragedies in the history of sport. We lost the greatest marathon runner of all time when his career had only just begun. Who knows what incredible performances he would have gone on to complete. It makes me feel sick to my stomach and so, so sad.
Chicago is a fantastic course and Kenya is an amazing country. R. I. P. Kelvin Kiptum 😢😢🥺
Runners are juicing
@@amirtz3342 The recent suspension of so many Kenyan athletes for doping does throw some shade on these kinds of performances by a Kenyan athlete.
EPO is a dangerous juice.
@amirtz3342 The juice is the 'shoes'. They have springs strapped to their feet. Shoes are no longer just shoes. The athletes are still great, but their times cannot be compared directly to those of the past.
R.I.P Kelvin Kiptum and his record
only being 45 seconds behind the mens leader at 10k in a major is absolutely insane
Kiptum's death still pains me, as we were robbed of an amazing talent who would have definitely broken the sub-2-hour barrier.
Congrats to Ruth for being the first woman to break the sub-2-hour 10min mark!
He was killed in a car wreck traveling at a very high rate of speed. This should be an example to others.
Imagine Kiptum ran this year. We wouldve probably seen 2 records broken😮💨
Would also have seen him be banned for doping!
@@PHOTON-v3rbefore kiptum died his world record was ratified let it be known he was clean

Guessing he would have run in Paris, so likely wouldn’t have been in Chicago today.

This is so incredible... literally... I REALLY hope she is clean.
And her pacers did an amazing job, running a 2.10 as a pacer for women😮

It's a mixed race and to be fair Kelvin barely used pacers in Chicago last year nor in London with bad weather running alone.

They already passed the limit.
Can't trust any record in running nowadays unfortunately...

Wow. What an amazing and historical achievement.
This is arguably the greatest world record right now. Insane!
Ruth was on 🔥 FIRE. She's also self- trained. 🔥
I didn’t think Paula Radcliffe’s record would’ve broken by now if you’d have asked me a few years ago, now we’re under 2:10! What an exciting time to be a fan of running!
The Paula Radcliffe record was always going to fall with female african runners rising through professionell training.
Very good video :)
What could she have run if only she hadn't gone out so wickedly fast???
When i ran this race in 2019,Brigid Kosgei set thf women's record in a time just over 2:14. In just a 5 yr period, Ruth took over 4 minutes off that time !
Suspicious isn’t it?
Much broader field in the past decade the number of female professional runners grow by 3 or 4 times.
That was very unexpected! I ran Munich today and she went faster than the winner here (2:10)
Both WRs will stand for a long time.
I watched it live and it was great! 🏃🏼
The real question is what number would her pacer have placed?🤔🤔
There was probably some good wind at their back with it being so windy today
I was WAITING for your video after seeing that result
Unglaublich, einfach unglaublich!
Herzlichen Glückwunsch❤
9:10 😂 it's the "bruh" for me 😂
Kelvin would have done so much more too if he just had time
Ran today and finished 3:05:21! One thing the video doesn’t state was that it was HOT! Imagine if it was 10 degrees cooler
Many of those athlets train with 25 to 30 degree weather year around at 7000 ft altitude
Just watched it live!!!!!
This WR is on par with Kiptum's WR. Its actually insane
Just felt goosebumps hearing the time. The record is back home. Only Sifan Hassan can break that record now.
Maybe assefa could reach it too.
Gidey and Yehualaw ran faster half marathons in Valencia then
Ruth but raced in Istanbul much more difficult course.
Ruth's time would place her 3rd fastest for American men ,that's crazy !
Super fast world record breaking female marathon time under 2:10!
I'm super happy for her new world record...but I just hope to God she is clean...that country has been in the news a lot about doping
