[@lojomc9311]

@@mathieudube6907 Kipchoge broke the 2 hour mark on a pancake flat course with rotating pace makers, perfect weather, and didn't have to slow down to pick up a hydration bottle. Boston is hilly, doesn't have any pacers, and usually has somewhat unpredictable weather. Sub2 is, literally, impossible on the Boston course

[@ikeman9784]

Everytime I'm on my lil 5 miler in the morn and wanna quit all I have to say to myself is what will Kipchoge do 😆

[@mccluskey_xyz]

Another reason for the 2011 Boston CR -- Ryan Hall took it out FAST and he was fit enough that Mutai and others took him seriously. Without pacers, it is going to require another aggressive start by a competitive field for Kipchoge to do something really special. The best races are truly team efforts.

[@dominofuel8050]

In my mind everything depends on what the other competitors decide to do tactically. Kipchoge's a machine, but he's not gonna break away from a pack at mile 5 because they're not running 4:40 pace from the gun. There are quite a few super high caliber athletes in the field who could potentially split sub-62 for the opening half if they wanted to, but they could also split around 65 in which case it would be near impossible for Eliud to finish anywhere under 2:06.

[@oilguy777]

and that’s not even talking about weather conditions yet… way too many x factors

[@djangoes6663]

Sure he wouldn’t break away? I guess it depends on weather and wether he has a realistic chance of breaking the course record. If he has, he might prioritize course record over „just“ going for a narrow win.

[@AP-wd6dv]

In Berlin, he broke away in mile 1. Only pacers were with him. I guess he won't do that here, though, since he doesn't know the course as well.

[@krakhour2]

Ive ran boston at it has a lot of down hill and narrow turns . Also big late hills with wind swirling. Is usually 5 to 7 minutes slower then most races. Also the crowds stand to close to the runners making it more difficult to breath and relax with all the screaming and drink dropping on surface. You can slip easy on gatorade as the road is a narrow 2 lane highway

[@mathieudube6907]

There is no reason why Kipchoge cant set the leading pace like he did at the olypics. The other two kenyans will not allow Kipchoge to simply take off. They will have no choice but to go with him. Thats the kenyan way. Kipchoges biggest advantage over his peers is that he is by far the best 42km time-trialist the world has ever seen. Everyone knows it. He will exploit it.

[@brennanherring9059]

It's impossible to predict. Best case scenario he runs around 2:02. Worst case, the sun explodes and everybody DNFs. You never know with the Boston Marathon.

[@user-jp7to3gf5t]

Your video mentions the weather in Boston on April 24th, The marathon is on April 17th this year. I agree that the weather is the big variable. Currently the weather is forecast for a high of 66 that day with a low is the 50’s. The king will run under 1.01 and IF he gets a tailwind will run under 2 hours. cannot wait

Due to the unpredictable weather which can give you unfair advantage or disadvantage it is very hard to predict a precise completion time for the Boston marathon. One thing for sure Kipchoge will run the fastest time possible for a marathon runner for the Boston marathon which for me is good enough to watch the event. An amazing runner which demonstrate what proper training can do for you. Thank you for sharing that amazing video. 👍👍👍

[@ddhurry4168]

I love Yuki's race. So fun to watch

[@lenvm]

Agreed. Unpredictable because in two recent years (1994 and 2011), there was a 20mph tailwind the whole way, making those Bostons basically the easiest major marathons in recent history. Other years have been among the hardest. As of ten days out, weather predictions call for a significant headwind so I don’t think even Kipchoge can do it unless the weather turns out different.

[@seer1623]

The weather report so far looks ideal, 5C low, 13 high, light wind. But it's Boston; it can turn on a dime. I ran in 2018, worst marathon experience of my life.

[@lenvm3344]

@@seer1623 Yesterday local weather had us with a 15 mph headwind. Now they are predicting a 15mph tailwind. The forecast will change every day. I do think the wind factor is incredibly significant for determining whether the CR goes down or not, given that the race basically doesn't change direction. Hoping for the best for my own sake and Kipchoge's.

[@nathanmitchell9695]

The best marathon runner ever in unpredictable conditions vs a course record set with as close to ideal conditions as you can get on that course. If the conditions are anywhere near ideal, Kipchoge walks away with the course record. If not, he's so good and so experienced with various different types of conditions that he could still threaten it but it's much less likely. If the conditions are OK but not ideal, I can still see him taking the record but he won't smash it by a minute or more without ideal conditions.

[@boydbryant2157]

With all the downhill on the first half of the race, he could push for a sub one hour, and then not have to push so hard on the uphills in the second half. But, however he decides to run, he does have a chance and setting a new course record.
