The fourth place finisher was only 19 years old! The winner of the race was running his first competitive marathon!

Stellar performance for a debut Marathon!

2:14:56 for Dennis Kimetto

I think the reason there was all Ethiopians has nothing to do with Kenya or Uganda not having the physical talent but it boils down to the social networking the Ethiopians have for each other not that the Kenyans or Ugandans are not as social as a group but the Ethiopians are perhaps more supportive of each other not just when they are winning but even when things are not as great That is just my theory

Do u know da wae?

I'm 64 and kind of discovered by accident that running alone wasn't really enough to do the job. I don't do weights beyond the one's that help the quads and knees. The main bulk of training I do on a bike and indoor trainer. Changed running style after 30 years of 'as it came out'. Average stride length has gone from about 1.1 m to 1.4. I visualise how the man here runs. Protein in the diet more important than fuel. Can't build muscle with carbs. Averaged two hours/day since mid 2021. Apart from a high speed crash on the bike, I can only remember one injury since 2013. That was down to a training error. Mobility, hydration and protein. Those are the main things. Running fuel food gets eaten anyway.

a million dollars is only enough for up to 10 years in Kenya, and that is not even a generation!

He's actually the first runner in history to run both sub 1.45 in 800 m and sub 27 in 10000 m, which he did already last year. So actually you should've had heard of him. He was the favorite to win EC 1000 m in Rome last year but failed the last 80 m and finished 4th

The guy who finished second is new runner he was in a refugee team before

Excellent

Africans and Kenyans?

Good Job to Almgren, but dude not the Greek flag hahaha, thats Uruguay!!

the white man looks at time just like the office the Kenyans says i just finish first dont need time

Very bad comment, didn' know the Swedish runner which was running last year very strong in track race, and you never even mentioned the Swiss runner, Dominic Lobalu which is one of the best runners in the world.😛

At the end of this video You said that in the top ten there are a lot of kenyans and Ethiopians and a Greek, is not a Greek is an Uruguaian ( Santiago Catrofe from Uruguay 8th posición) . You must learn the countries flaws.

I agree, if it works for him then so be it. But if you are running a 150 miles a week, even superman would need to get proper rest. I wish Bekele all the best in his future races !

Wow!

Ethiopia is a source of big big runners long time ago !

Like most runners, he probably has the mindset that the more you do the better. Even if the workloads are light, by going to the gym five times a week, his coach realizes this is building his mental confidence as well.

WOW !!

Running approximately 200 km per week will make the gym secession difficult.

Gateshead is not in the South of the UK, it is in the North East of England.

probably the greatest runner ever really. No one has gone this fast in the 10k yet also run a 1:45. Truly mind boggling

Wanker lol

Lol, how are you so clueless? Almgren is not an up n comer, has the same PR on the 5k as lobalu..

If it works for him at injury prevention then good luck to him. I remember Bekele at his marathon debut in Paris 2014 where he was pointing to his glutes to express the pain at that area. As long as it positively affects his performance then he should continue.

British champion tells kenyans? How do you call british runner a champion when kenyans or africans are around???😂😂😂😂

Les coureurs africains ont des soucis à se faire . ...

Well done. I wish I could have seen this live. The world needs a dedicated track & field cable channel. Then again corporations would ruin it. Therefore "The Runner" is a great channel. Thanks for this.

Congratulations brother kissable from UG

“British champion tells Kenyans to hurry up - you will not see said British champion for the remainder of this video.” 😂 Joker made himself his own “be careful what you wish for” meme. It’s crazy to me that some folk will actually get mad at you for not beating them worse. I had an ex sister in law and her husband get super heated at me because my partner and I didn’t win by more points in a spades game. I’m like, you mad because you didn’t lose worse? How? Why? Tf?

More dodgy info on a KZbin clip😂

ALL ARE FROM ETHIOPIA...

Andreas Almgren have always come back from many injuries during the years.

Easily? Win or lose, Muir always runs to exhaustion.

Blasting the EPO

Ya saldrá el 'doping'.

Resolution of 480p???

Running is about strategy ,, these white boys aint got it 😂😂😂😂

Brits: use all their energy in the first 30secs & think they will win a long distance Africans: at the front the entire time Brits: no where to be seen Africans: first 6 people, far ahead of all Brits

how is this a surprise? he was number 1 ranked uk half marathon runner for like 5 years

This video brings back memories of when I was in High School and College and preparing for the upcoming cross country season during the summer months. I would do a long run of 10 miles and try to do a negative split for the last 5 miles of the run. Another type of run would be mile repeats starting the summer off with 4 or 5 mile repeats once a week and increase it to 9 mile repeats before the end of the summer. And, I always ran rolling hills at my local golf course to get ready for the cross country season. I only wish I was young again and could start my running career over again from scratch. It was a fun time in my life. Thanks for making the video!

The long run with Incorporated speed work is where the magic happens! Specificity of training!

Looks like a man dressed as a woman

Like I said if you notice the last winners line up. Except for the second place all are Ethiopians. Hence all those who made it a sprinting contest were the Ethiopians

As a matter of fact what the commentator on the video missed is that all of those leaders are Ethiopians

Kenyans are good though a Ugandan has taken the race

Though I wasn’t running I beat her time getting to the buffet line. Great run !

So 10 mile in 29:01 what was her speed in mph 20?

Dreadful commentary, never again
