People just don’t realize how fast this guy runs. Faster than 99+% of people running a mile, and he can keep his pace for 26+ miles. The physical toll he puts on his body is insane.
Contrary but the toll isn't much for him. He's running a fast pace, but his mile PR is sub 4 minutes. This is a strong pace but not nearly all out effort and he's trained so well he can recover quickly too.
@@wiremanart just because he has conditioned his body to run that fast and for that long, doesn’t mean it doesn’t take a huge toll on the body. Anyone who has ever been a high level athlete knows that. He has to constantly be in absolutely incredible shape and to eat incredibly healthy and to train extremely specifically and recover in a way that normal people don’t understand.
a mile? That 2:36/km is like 39seconds for a 400m. 99% of people couldn't even run that far & fast, let alone a mile, or 26!. Among some of us strictly amateur runners, we can barely get near that speed even sprinting. Phenomenal athlete.
@@fuzzblightyear145 i try to up my speed, as I am close to 4:00 per km when running 10 kms. It seems impossible someone can run that pace for that long. Try running 20 kph and your extremely good if you hold it for a minute.
That is 66 sec per every 400m not 39secs. For sure he can't outrun the world record holder for 400m that is around 42secs.
i paused the video for his pacers to take a break
How kind of you

Being paid to be a pacer is the literal definition of 'professional athlete'
True
It's not literally the definition no
@@Mrissecool what is, then?
@@pranavps851 a professional athlete is someone who performs athletic activities professionally, which includes pacers. But saying that it's the literal definition is retarded, if that was the case, that would mean that you'd look up "professional athlete" in the definition and it would say "pacer". That's obviously wrong.
Yes but not in the way that most people think. A Pacers goal is NOT to win the event they are in. Whereas in any other sport a pro athletes goal is to win. This is why they make the differentiation. Do you consider a coach to be a professional athlete? But yeah of course we all know pacers are pro athletes too technically.
This guy is not human, to us it looks like he is jogging at a fast pace but in reality he is sprinting at nearly full speed. Watching this man made me run outta breath, truly remarkable lungs he is gifted with.
I'm from Kenya and ill tell you for a fact that even where he stays and trains usually has a significant impact on his Athleticism, his home town is ITEN (you can google)... Place high up in hills
Moving fast enough that I'd have to sprint flat-out to keep up with him? Sure thing, he's incredible. Moving at a sprint himself? Nah.
His mile PR is 3:50 - if he could maintain that mile pace for a full marathon, he'd break the world record by like 20 minutes. No idea what his actual top speed is, but it's definitely much faster than his marathon WR pace.
(to be clear, I fully agree that this is ridiculous - he's incredible)
@@patheddles4004 not his maximum speed, but very damm close to it.
Not a gift but hardwork and dedication
@@mrtechnique7625 both, honestly.
1:39 How are we gonna look at the difference in facial expressions when the video quality looks like it was recorded on a coffee machine?
1080p quality
It's called, "FOCUS"
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
“ABSOLUTELY GAHSPING”
Recorded on a coffee machine with sand in the filter, that is xD
Kipchoge's lifestyle is the secret to his amazing dominance in the marathon. Although he has a wife and 3 children he mostly lives with those who train with him, eats a strict diet and has few distractions when he's training, and mostly that's what he does. It's like a religion to him, and gives him peace of mind.
This is the type of discipline and perseverance most of us struggle with. I'm sure if an average person does what kipchoge does but in his career ,he or she will succeed and be top 1% within a short time, but because we cannot maintain such with everything going on in the world that's why most of us take long to reach the top of our fields.
@@AntoineJacques yes but once you achieve that discipline level then you are no longer an average person. To get to the Kipchoge level you have to go the extra mile (literally as well)
@@zigzagnemesist5074 You do not literally go the extra mile.
What does he eat I wonder? His running is phenomenal!
@@irah866 he eats what Kenyans eat, what distinguishes him from the rest is his mental fortitude and hard work. Also living/training in high altitudes helps a lot just take a look at Julien Wanders' transformation.
He is a machine... Imagine running a marathon and finishing with smile like someone just ran 10 meters..
His pace is more than average 100 m pace for non athlete which means basically he can beat most of us by just jogging...
Dude u can easily run 100 meters with over 30kmh without being an athlete...
His pace isn't faster then the average 100m pace XD. However it still is extremely fast but not that fast.
@@benji0054 well yes it kind of is.. ruclips.net/video/SRYtn0j5ccA/видео.html
i've gotten into running again recently. this man's average pace per kilometer is better than my pace for the first kilometer. he more than doubles me
@@kingfreddy5268 olympic level is 35km/h. if you can get within 5km/h of the olympics without being an athlete, you should start being one and go beat usain bolt
This was fascinating! His pacers should be praised. I can't imagine how difficult it must have been to keep up with him. Good job, Kipchoge.
Yep. Going 3 pace for a really long time is super difficult.
🤣🤣🤣🤣 U r full of cannabis in ur head😂😂😂repeat again wat have u said??? Looh🤣
Its crazy how he makes running that fast look like jogging. Seeing people run his pace on a treadmill really puts it in perspective!
Most treadmills max out at 20kph. He's doing 21kph! Crazy fast... I can do it for just over 3 minutes / 1km and then I'm done
In live too. The video doesn't do it justice
I didn't even know they ran fast
It's because he is using the peak running form.
I started running after his sub 2hr because he made it look so easy. I had trouble with one mile and now I'm up to 6 miles on my slow runs and 28-30 minute 5K!
That's a great 5k time. I'm sure you are killing it
Good shit!
I remember being gassed between 800m-1k getting that first mile is a great feeling to achieve. Great going on getting to your 5k and for getting good times.
How’s it going now?
Here’s a suggestion:
Pacers should use bicycles.
………At least Kipchoge’s pacers should.
I still wouldn’t be able to keep up
@Cat Jones This time counted and is still the wr. His sub 2 hour marathon was to prove a point, not break a wr. The car that was pacing him alone made it unofficial. He was also likely on some form of performance booster, using controversial/banned shoes, and using a course designed for speed, not an interesting race.
Good idea but that defeats the purpose. Believe it or not, a Pacer is there to remind you simple stuff like left foot, right foot, and breathing. Just by watching them your body subconsciously corrects itself. So those pacers were doing more harm than good. You would be surprised how difficult that is after an hour running. I would go with a extra person on a scooter that swaps out pacers on some "mid air refueling" act. That would be a cool thing to see.
should consider using robot pacers
lol
I can run Eliud Kipchoge's pace for 10 meters and then would fall down and die.
@PAFSM LOL.
i bet i could last 100m.... gimme a few weeks to prepare
So it takes you much more than 17 seconds to run 100 metres
But still I would take money for that 10 meters pace
I could do 200 m at that pace, not counting the distance to the ambulance
How the f**** can he run at that pace with his mouth closed!!!??!?!?!?! That is absolutely mindblowing!
Buteyko/oxygen advantage. I’m not saying this is what he does specifically, but it works
@@cannibalmanimal2336 it’s true, your more oxygenated breathing 😮💨 through nose 👃
Practice
It would be more impressive if he did it with his mouth open since that decreases performance.
@@jaywalkercrew4446 You can take in much more air/oxygen through your mouth; which is why when you're tired, your instinct is to open your mouth, because you can get more air. He didn't have his mouth open, because he's an endurance athlete, meaning he's running at just the right HR to allow him to maintain that pace over 2 hours. Basically, if he was running faster his mouth would be open, but he couldn't maintain that pace for any length of time.
He finishes a world record marathon and just keeps running like he isnt even the slightest bit winded. Incredible
That's normal, the only pacers that could keep up with him his someone who is a 2.03/04 marathon runner and wants to sacrafice their race and pace maybe to 30/33k
Couldn't they just use many more pacers and use shorter distance runners? Like 5/10k dudes?
@@kblkbl it’s an official race, u can’t run only a small part of the marathon
@@francescoandrissi1920 But the pacers are required to be competitors? How are they switching up as the race goes on?
@@kblkbl they don’t switch, u can see in the video the pacers are the same
Kipchoge : I am the pace.
Just started running ( for better health not competitive) 2 weeks before. Currently it is taking me 10 minutes to complete 1 mile( I can run max 1.25 to 1.5 mile). It is really astonishing for me to think these athletes can run 22 mile at 3 times pace that me .
Keep going with it I started at the start of lockdown totally addicted to it now 5 nights a week I do 10k love it
@@danielharrop1044 Thanks Daniel . I aim to run 5k at the end of year
hey, a 10 minute mile isn't that bad at all! try to not overexert yourself so you can run longer distances tho. the speed will come with time
@@danielharrop1044 over running is bad for the knees though, i think 3 times a week is the right amount..
@@lyhthegreat yeah that is true only been doing it two years so should be good for a while must admit tho my ankles are starting to hurt more but I’m totally addicted especially when it’s hard up hill and you get your wind up keeps the mind strong
Can't they have another set of (fresher) pacers who start at halfway. This will push the athletes to push for world records.
That’s what they did for his race in Vienna. Not in marathons with official records though; since a runner, or pacer, starting from halfway would kind of be cheating, and the route of the marathon is only reserved for people actually racing. If that were the case, then you could have the pacers organized in a way that allows for the area around Eluid to be more aerodynamic, thus giving him a competitive advantage.
Here you still kind of have that at the start but it goes away as more pacers drop out. They are mostly there just to set him up and make sure that he paces himself earlier on and then simply maintains the same pace he had during the first half.
Also keep in mind the pacers were only there to help him go just slightly over the record and not smash it in the time that he did. Because he was going so fast (much faster than they expected), the other pacers were not able to keep up and dropped out early.
For a finish time to be official, all runners, including pacers, must start at the same time, in the same place.
So while adding pacers later in the race may yield record times, it won't yield any legitimate records.
Yeah like a relay.
@@fulalbatross but why? How does that make any logical sense? Isnt the pacer not apart of the race? What is the problem with having a pacer start fresh at the mid point so he can start where the last guy left off and head to the finish line so the number 1 runner can be behind him. It would make the number 1 guy push himself even more.
@@futuretrunks9257 "why not let some guy start in the middle of a race as to give the leader an even bigger lead".
Just bc hes gna win doesn't mean he gets special treatment.
Whats next a giant truck with a 30x30 piece of wood so he cannot receive wind coming at him. He only runs in the slip stream of the truck? After all a truck isnt even human why isnt that allowed?
my legs are aching just watching these athletes run. Respect to anyone that run marathons.
This guy is clearly one of the best athletes to ever live even if this race was run 20 years ago I feel he would have got very close if not broken it even then.
Didn’t this guys performance solely come
Down to the shoes he was wearing ? the shoes gave him the extra advantage ?
@@deezelkane this particular race was ran before that shoe was introduced.
The shoe just came the other day, 2019
@@deezelkane solely? You think it's solely down to the shoes?? Get in the bin. He's ran crazy fast and won with shoes that are falling apatt
@@deezelkane I want to know what kind of shoes can do this lol
Nike vapourflys I think they were
What a machine. Didn't even look spent at the end of it!
I watched this race live (webcast), and it was an experience. The commentators were basically stuck in disbelief the entire time, and came up with quite a few different ways (in German) of saying that his pace was extremely fast.
I saw him drop his last pacer around the halfway mark, but I had no idea that his pacers were competitive runners being brought in specially. Not surprised that his pacers for the sub-2 run were all world-class competitive runners, even if they were only running 5k shifts with him.
I would have had a heart attack 42 seconds in, and when he finished a world record marathon he barely looked winded haha
that's the sad part a bit, when i did my best time of 28 minutes for 7Km, i had the best run i've ever had but i finished with a far much faster pace and wasn't as tired, pains me that i could have gone much faster.
😂😂😂
Even the word superhuman is overused nowadays, but this dude is so much better than everyone else, there's no other word for it. Absolutely incredible.
Kipchoge is simply one of the most incredible athletes that has ever been and ever will be. Remarkable.
Kipchoge is amazing, i just hoped he and taken time to recover after the ineos race coz it took a lot from him and affected his next race. I'm wishing him all the best in Olympics so we can all celebrate at home
He made it gold again. GOAT
@@klaus254 GOAT
Your request was granted. Gold Olympics
@@AntoineJacques atleast he didnt disappoint you 😊👏👏👏
This dude is a legendary runner. What a time to be alive!
hold on to your papers :D
Imagine how Bekele felt the next year, when he missed that time by only 2 seconds!
A round of applause for the last pacer because at least he held out longer than the rest, he tried man, but it's not easy, it's not easy in cycling and it's not easy in running... pf
And most importantly, Eliud is a machine, there is no way to keep up with him. It reminds me of that triathlon athlete who had an impressive advantage over the rest, when he was running up the hill the second one was still leaving the bike and changing shoes
All pacers, ALL PACERS are professional athletes. Also, many runners jump at the chance to pace. You just make stuff up. What a tool.
I don’t think that is what he really means tho…I think he’s saying kipchoge always gets more experienced pacers who have paced a lot more
@@mattlucas5745 that’s exactly what I thought.
Yeh
You talking about NBA team Indiana Pacers?
This guy is an absolute phenomenon! I remember seeing when he ran a sub 2 hour marathon using a laser guided pace car, which is not official result because of the "artificial help" but still amazingly incredible!
Artificial help is such a dumb rule, they should make an exception for him because there’s literally no one who can pace Kipchoge
If there was by any chance an athlete who was challenging to pass him from behind am sure he would have run that marathon in 2hrs flat. He is just exceptional. The whole of Kenya 🇰🇪 we are proud of you. Najivunia kuwa mkenya
I remember this. Two pacers dropped at or before 15km. Then one remained and could only pace Eliud to around 24 to 25km; he was totally exhausted and could not continue. They were supposed to pace Kipchoge to 30km but the speed was too much to endure up to the 30km mark.
Yeah we all saw the video...
@@garrendarling3853 youre pathetic
Um fenômeno! De outro planeta. Ave Kipchoge!
I Hope the Best for All Marathon Runner's.
I have ran 9 Marathons...
It's not an easy thing to do.
Pain, Pain, and More Pain...
Best thing I ever did...!!!
Just did, my first one in Los Angeles yesterday. Looking forward to my next.
What is this click bait, a pacer going just over halfway at this pace is completely normal😂
Did you even watch the video? Those were not even real pacers and they ran for way less than they were supposed to, the first two dropped out pretty much right at the start. The "pacers" could not keep up and that's literally what the video is about
@@horizon3064 One lasted 10km or so, another lasted 15km or so, and the final lasted 25-35km (video doesnt quite show).
Thats pretty normal.
He doesn't need 3 pacers the whole time.
The first one likely did most of the work for the first 10km, then the 2nd guy probably took over for the next 5km.
The reason for having multiple pacers is so that they can share the work, allowing for the longest time with at least 1 pacer. Doesn't matter when the 1st or 2nd drops out, it matters when the final one does
@@tensemurm5924 Which is funny since the commentators had no idea and didn't mention this. I saw the whole thing and they mever mentioned this...
@@tensemurm5924 so, i looked it up...
"The first pacer pulled out at 14K, the second at 16K and the last one held on till about 25K."
while that does fall within your 25-35km, it's at the bottom
This footage was so compressed, I couldn't make out the facial expressions.
I was questioning why he wasn't sprinting at the end, but I realized that he was basically sprinting the whole time.
Boi gonna need pacers on bikes for his next race
Bro pacers are always professional runners?
That's what I was thinking lol
Yeah Fr 🤣
Over excited child doing the commentary, knows f all about running
What he means is they arent training to pace him like pro pacers are they are just running and training for them
@@colinmartens432 all pacers are running and training for them, they don’t train to that level to pace 🤪 they’re professional runners who then get paid to pace a race, you can see the same in athletics in the track for example when Ryan Gregson from Australia paced in Doha, he’s not training to be a pacer ahahaha
Props to the pacer for his effort
For long races like this why dont they just have pacers start at different points. First dude runs at the desired pace then 10km in or something other guy comes and syncs up with the other pacer then first guy drops off, etc. Wouldnt need people that could place in the race themselves to come as pacers.
99% sure that it disqualifies the race for record consideration, which was one of the reasons Kipchoge's 1:59:40 was not eligible for world record consideration.
Correct. In order for a WR to be recognized all runners must start from the gun and cannot swap in and out
@@ryanxu1065 I know that, but why not change the rule to you know, get better pacing? There are literally lights on track races that does the pacing for the runners now and the pacers aren't expected to finish the race. I don't see why it'd be such an issue to improve pacing in this manner. When you need a top 10 runner to pace the top runner that really doesn't make any sense.
@@THExJMC Because the only people who can pace a beast like Kipchoge have to be 2:05 marathoners themselves, which means they'll be professionals participating in the event.
@@srinitaaigaura That's exactly why I think the rule doesn't make sense. These top runners are not as good as Kipchoge, so even if they can make it to 30km, then won't make the full distance at that pace and they'll have to bow out. But maybe if they ran at a slightly slower pace they'd place top 10 just a minute or 2 back from Kipchoge. They give up their own competition just to be a pacer and there aren't many people who can do it. However, there would be plenty of people who could run Kipchoge's marathon pace for 5km or 10km, and they could easily pace the entire race if they were allowed to switch in and out.
why don‘t they replace the pacers every 10 kilometers? then they wouldn‘t need professional marathon runners to pace him.
Its illegal to "enter" once a race has begun.
Theyre probably abiding by some rules
If they do that it no longer becomes a legal run for kipchoge, as pacers aren’t there just make sure he’s running the right speed, but to block the wind in front of him
Hi Mike- In marathon racing the pacer is also one of the competitors. If a runner can’t keep up the pacer’s speed and if pacer manages to finish ahead of all runners then it actually means the pacer won the race. The pacer would win the marathon prize money in addition to his pacer fee. However, this a very highly unlikely scenario and happened only once at a Doha marathon where the pacer actually won the race. This is the reason why you can’t switch pacers in a official marathon race. Hope this helps.
@@1212wolverine that’s really interesting and good to know
@@1212wolverine There was also a big US marathon many years ago where the pacer won.
New Record today. This guy is a beast. 2:01:09.
I could sprint my absolute hardest for an entire mile and will still be two minutes slower than him. and runs that fast for 26 miles straight without even being short of breath. this man is insane
He didn't seem tired AT ALL, even after finishing the race. That is insane endurance...
I remember that race, I was on the edge of my seat looking at the clock for the sub 2. What a master class.
Please still pay the pacer
Damn. His time at 2:01:40 is a 4 minute, 38 second pace. When he hit mile #6 in 29 minutes I was blown away. My best time for a 10K is 45 minutes which is a 7 minute, 30 second pace. Damn proud of my pace but jeez, that guy in incredible.
That’s about my pace on a very good day ,I can’t get my head around this guy…😳😳😳
Kipchoge is something else, I once tried his marathon pace on a treadmill (max speed, 20km/h which is still slightly slower), it felt like a full sprint and I couldn’t last more than 3 minutes even though I run every day!
U don't know math? A pace of 7m30 wouldnt allow u to have made 10km in 45 min.
@@rbaleiro he’s talking about his pace in miles not km. 7 min 30 second minutes per mile is 4 min 40 second minutes per km which is around 45 mins depending on rounding. the pace of Kipchoge is also not in km. he’s not going 4 minute 38 second pace. I don’t know why OP made it so confusing
I ran a 4:38 mile on the track and it felt absolutely flat out. To string a heap together….. just mind blowing it’s even possible.
To be fair that pacer that kept up for up to 30km I would say with training he could come damn near at a WR pace
All Pacer were toast before 21km...
Two dropped at or before 15km. Then one remained and could go to around 24 to 25km; he was totally exhausted and could not continue. They were supposed to pace him to 30km but the speed at which Eliud required was too much to handle to the 30km mark.
Pacers trying to pace the pace himself, not possible.
props to that pacer for keeping that up for over half a marathon that guy is nuts
I thought I’d try Kipchoge’s pace on the treadmill.
The treadmill literally didn’t go that high lol 😂
That's us Kenyans, very strong.Sad that we lost the upcoming GOAT Mr Kiptum, rip bro.
It's true all he says... Even on Eneos event for 1.59:00 he was using professional athletes... Not pacers... Coz it was impossible pace to keep up with...
Eliud is just a freak of nature...
He needs to redo the race with 8 proffesional runners as pacers spread out throughtout the race.
I don’t think the pacers can be switched
@@RafaelParra-bh2kh If pacers are switched in and out it does not count as a record. Kipchoge ran an exhibition race where they did this and ran 1:59, but this is not the official record.
He did this and actually broke the 2:00 mark!!
@@annahcreates no way!! Say.. you wouldn’t happen to have that link would you? 👀
@@ericclay9679 where can i find this video? But regardless or not if its an official record, that’s an unbelievable time… i more or less wanted to see the limits of humans best athletes and i am not disappointed!!

What a MAN! What a LEGEND! God Bless Eliud!
Bro kipchoge isn’t even tired on the end...
Dude is running and celebrating like he run 100m.
When I was in middle school I ran 1 mile in 5 minutes and 50 seconds was my best time. I am 44 years old now and it takes me 13 minutes to accomplish a 1 mile run. I am extremely out of shape. But even when I was in the best shape of my life when I was a teenager I still can’t even keep up with Kipchouge. He’s out of this world
I was ‘fast’ when I was younger. And it still took me 3 full years of nonstop training in order to run one mile at his marathon pace.
I was barely able to do that for 2 miles at my best.
Now, in my 30s…. I have dreams of 2hr 30 min marathon.
Thinking about one minute faster every mile melts my motivation.
He's meditating. You get in a zone, and it becomes automatic while you think about something other than what you are doing
Yeah but why can’t many people do as he does? It’s not easy
Everyone else: Life is a marathon, not a sprint
Eliud Kipchoge: Hold my Bila Shaka
Those pacers absolutely unneeded, what Eliud needs is a big windshield robot
There are perhaps no more than a few thousand runners in the world at any given point in time that can run sub 30 in a 10K. Only a few hundred runners can run a 61 minute half marathon. So to do that, then negative split that for the second half like Kipchoge did at Berlin, is super-human.
I can see the possibility of drones perhaps being pacers for future races. This is a very interesting topic.
The greatest marathon runner of all time
SO….This is the man that’s been chasing me in my nightmares! Yep! He’s wearing a mask and donning a machete and continues to chase me for what seems an eternity, all the while laughing maniacally and increasing his pace!
Eliud, you are a bad, bad man!
On his next race
His manager: "So are we going to have pacers?"
Pacers: "..Bruh"
Super human.They kept the ancient genes that kept us alive on the savanas
They should of started half of of the pacer at the start and in the middle and switch them out
It’s illegal
@@JesusChrist-iu9xw
There's a really simple solution to this. Make the marathon a two lap (half marathon length each) race, and have the second pacer just be at the start with everyone else and just sit there for an hour until the actual runners come by.
@@randomperson4513 ye but no one‘s gonna do that to a marathon track just to give him an advantage, genius.
Absolute alien of a dude. He must feel like a damn super hero.
So basically the pacers are paced by the guy who's supposed to be paced by the pacers and is now the pacer to these pacers.
From the the thumbnail I was waiting for the part where Kipchoge is asking the pace setter to hurry up🤣🤣
this is not the WR anymore, he improved this year (2022) to 2:01:09
I feel though that last time he actually ran the 2nd half faster. 2:36 km is crazy. This time near the end it was closer to 3 min. Eliud first half this time was crazy.
Occasionally, when an elite runner kick the pacer curbside, it not only is perfectly fine but also it is part of “excitement”.
I will beat that record one day 💫
good for you. impossible is nothing
Keep dreaming 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
✊🏿✊🏿✊🏿💪🏿💪🏿💪🏿💪🏿 That's the mentality 💯💯
What is your fastest 5k?
You'll best the record an then you'll wake up
We have long established the guy is a GOAT on world of his own peerless in distance running....... The only people left down playing his prowess are key board warriors and coach potatoes that have never completed a single KM on the track leave alone the road the rest of us are just in owe of his almost casual pace for such a long distance
Let me pace him. I could pace him to a sub-2-hour marathon for the first 50m.
Me too
i would think that being a pacer and support kipchoge would be an honor no matter how good you yourself are.
Just get a horse at this point
The monster in him have grown since his performance in Boston marathon. he knows he will have to be better .
I don't think you can blame the pacers as they're entitled to a bad day like everyone else
I don't even think that was a bad day tbh, except that they were given the impossible task of pacing Kipchoge. Really can't fault them for falling short of that.
Offhand I reckon the best option would be world-class half-marathon competitors hired to pace the first half and then drop. Best guess is there's like 10-15 people in the world capable of pacing 20+ km at Kipchoge's marathon pace right now, and I'd expect them all to be HM specialists. I suspect the pacers in Berlin were all world-class marathon specialists, and that's why they all blew up well before halfway (even the one that limped along for a while after he should have dropped).
It’s wild to see how the human body can move. When they speak of how humans were persistent hunters, this is a Great example of that. What animal could outrun something going this fast for over 20 miles.
Imagine being in a state where you're gasping for air, tired as fuck and still have 30 mins to run... AT ELIUD's pace !
I'd just lay down and die 😭
Eliud likes to follow the line, he is actually asking the pacer to follow it so he can be behind.
Eliud is a legend😘
he is just much older, experienced, trained. they often believe younger athletes would manage, but is just wrong. even the psychological aspect, having experience, makes you a stronger athlete. he is exceptional
I dont get it, like it makes sense eliud is beating the pacers, hes the fastest marathon runner in the world. If Pacers were faster than the top runners they'd be running the marathons themselves right? Unless they're given some sort of advantage, like starting halfway, Pacers for the top runners dont make sense to me.
Usually pacers are switched out constantly. None of the pacers ever run the full race so they can go faster albeit for a shorter distance
@@davidvivsik6576 ahhh, okay thanks, that explains it
@@andriusk5044 yeah. I'm still not sure why fresh pacers weren't put in halfway through the race
@@davidvivsik6576 if they had put in new pacers mid race, like they did it in the ineos 1:59 challenge, than this wouldn’t meet the criteria for a official running contest and therefore it wouldn’t count as an official world record.
you know hes going for the sub 2hr marathon now
95% of this is based on physiology, environment where they grow up in (elevation), and lifestyle especially when it comes to eating and food choices. Not too many of these runners come from Manhattan NY where they eat McDonalds most of their lives. It just doesn't happen. Deep respect for Kipchoge for doing the unimaginable.
Genius , Kipchoge was smiling most of the run ;) Genius !
Eliud Kipchoge World Record in Beijing in 2018 with a time of 2:01:39s no human is limited
Berlin *
I don’t think we will ever see a better endurance runner ever, his genetic makeup is special.
Why not use cyclist pacers or pacers for 5 or 10km intervals only? (so 4 or 8 pacers)
Because the world record rules state pacers cannot jump in and out of an official race. That's why they are laid to only run part of the course and then usually drop out. If they finish it would be as designated pacer, not as competitor.
Genius……… EK……he always emphasises on discipline & focus…..no wonder he writes poetry with his feet
Too fast for professional pacers = CRAZY!!! Wow!
the fact that he was still running after the race just shows how strong he is
Maybe if Bekele was his pacer since he is the only one who can match him. Or vice versa.
Practice practice and practice, I drink marathon I eat marathon I sleep marathon I pray marathon. I live to marathon. What a man Eliud is.
i always run at this speed with mouth shut too
Me too I always run this pace.... On my motorbike... Easy
I hold my nose and run at the same speed too😤
But for how long? 5 meters? 😹
Someday we're going to find out that Kipchoge is actually a robot. The man is superhuman.
