I learned about him through the breaking 2 project, and it is amazing to see someone with such discipline and perseverance and work ethic. I’m very happy for his success in Vienna.
Kipchoge is ugly though so girls don't care. Stop acting like he's Tom Brady. Tom Brady could break two hours if he wanted to. He'd rather play a real man's sport.
@@Olympics a true inspiration for all those young athletes out there who think they're not good enough to achieve the impossible.. .. . We can all definitely learn to do it from this man ELIUD KIPCHOGE!
@Erick Mandujano not just that, the choose the perfect course with no hill had a choice between 3 days to take the one with less wind and perfect temperature or something like that
Huge props to the guy from North- Korea, not only was he able to hang on to the pack for most of the run, but he placed fairly high aswell, with a pretty good time. North-korea doesnt have the facilitys to train these athlete. and the guy probably never had any real experiences of a marathon, like in the crowd and the atmosphere in the pack.. so huge props bro, saw u collapse near the finish.

Wow Kipchoge face at 37:24 looked so focus and calm...like there’s no sign of exhaustion... This man drew me into marathon..and i’ll keep practice for that ^^
In my opinion the marathon is not only a race against other people it’s a mental battle and a battle against fatigue, all of these competitors are warriors
I watch this for the second time, this is the best marathon visual capture of all time. Camera work, color gradation, all those slow motion shots, scenery, overall vision of how to show what running is about- it's a masterpiece.
What a ballsy race from Galen Rupp. To hang on the shoulder of Eliud Kipchoge when it's only your second time racing this distance? Gotta hand it to him, what a competitor.
Kipchoge has repeated this stunt again today in Tokyo. But it was legendary considering that between 30-35KMs, he averaged 2.54mins/KM. An absolute monster!
Kipchoge is the G.O.A.T. Such a phenomenal athlete and person! I'm watching this 6 years after the event and I stood up and clapped as he crossed the finish line.
Love how when they get water or sponges they all make sure to pass it around the group so no one misses out. Lucky to experience doing this in my latest half marathon race. True feeling of sportsmanship
I was watching the race and thinking wait is that RUPP? that looks just like him. Then I checked it up he got only 5th at 10000 and tried out the marathon and got third. WOW!
I have searched for this for years religiously and finally here we are. So unfair for you to have kept it to yourself all this time. All in all, Eliud Kipchoge, the legend.
My respect for takizaki is way over the top and all there. As long as they did it when I can't even take 7 steps to my house..... RESPECT. But my Kipchoge he made our whole country proud. We enjoyed his day coz he did something special to is in Kenya. Kama mnakumbuka... My anthem. The whole world knows it coz of him. Yeeeeeeeereyyyy
Watching these guys finish the way they did, especially the last few finishers, I have more respect for how they finished the race. I know what that is like because I had to experience limping across the line, too. It's painful because you're literally giving all you have, and by the time you cross that line, you have nothing left. These runners are all great at what they do.
I cannot think of any top athlete, who would have trained as well as Kipchoge. He has only ever lost one marathon, that he has competed in, the rest, he won pretty convincingly. He was odds on favorite, to win his Olympic title, and he achieved that in style.
Beat the world records by over a minute! Won in both olympics with a margin of over a minute! He is the greatest marathon runner in my opinion. I hope he gets a three peat Paris 2024 and then, there should be no dispute he is the GOAT!
I like how the athletes are supportive with each other edit: it still blows my mind how some people didn’t like that Lilesa was chosen to be in the marathon! And he proved them wrong and got the silver medal! Let’s go
That is so cool that spectators can run or bike ride alongside and cheer for their favorite athletes for a bit in an Olympic race. That's gotta be awesome.
I agree, except with over 100 runners it's just very difficult to get all of that info on the screen. Even when the lead pack was down to 10-20, splits are tough to report.

“He’s run 7 marathons and he’s yet to run a bad one. Everyone has one, it doesn’t matter how good you are.” 4 years later and were still waiting. Kipchoge is incredible, if ever we need an ambassador for humanity, he’s who we need
It's so inspiring to see these guys pushing themselves so hard. I stopped running for a while and lost my ability to run up this couple hundred-foot hill near my place in one go but I remember now how I pushed through the incredible pain the first few times and wanna try to get it back.
Really proud of Lilesa for that 2nd place finish they were having protests in Ethiopia about not selecting Bekele and how it was a ripoff to choose Lilesa but he did a spectacular job for the silver medal 🥈
Watching this for the second, maybe third time, I am amazed at the difference in finished between Kipchoge and Lilesa and Rupp. While Kipchoge accelerated to the finish, the other two were struggling to not have to sprint - so tired and all. Number 4 sprinted and so sad, but that's marathon. Congratulations to all marathon runners. you inspire us all.

Gotta love that he started smiling near the end cause he knew he had it. Still had plenty of gas in tank to burn the other guys that were running on fumes and he knew it just insane. Couldn't imagine keeping that pace for 30 minutes let alone an hour and 40 and still having afterburners in my back pocket.

Eric Capostagno many people have gold medals, some in the marathon, Kipchoge is the only person to cross the 26.2 distance in under 2 hours
probably still is..
@Eric Capostagno I agree. The gold means more because it was a legitimate competition and the biggest stage in athletics, not an exhibition.
