How Eliud Kipchoge Ran a Sub 2 Hour Marathon

[@schokoladegd776]

fastest mile sprint is actually 3.72 minutes

[@maxacree203]

To be honest though, the difference between running a 3:43 mile to a 4:34.... and then the same time difference in the inverse ... 4:34 compared to 5:23 or whatever is not equal. The closer you get to going under 4, and then for each second you get under 4 ... the difficulty multiplies by exponential numbers. 3:59 is a different universe than 4:30, even though on the inverse most 5 minute milers could pretty easily train to run a 4:30. My main point is, time differences are not equal. 30 seconds isnt just 30 seconds when it comes down to these paces. Its why you have any number of HS athletes that can run a 4 minute mile but only 3 ppl in history who have run sub 3:46. Its less than 15 seconds, but in those 15 seconds seperates the greatest runners to ever live from a mildly talented high school xc runner.

The reason he doesn’t seem tired at the end is because what we tend to recognize as “tired looking” after a race is the look someone has when they enter extreme oxygen debt which is common in shorter races like a 400m, 800m, or mile. An elite marathoner will rarely, if ever, (other than at the end of a race for a kick) enter any level of oxygen debt. The burden of running a marathon is on the muscles not the lungs. I know its probably unbelievable to think that running 4:34 mile pace for 26.2 miles wouldn’t send someone into massive oxygen debt but its the truth. We’re not talking about everyday people, we’re talking about people who’s body’s have been trained to utilize oxygen at otherworldly levels

[@skys0uls]

My dad always really loved running. He didn't start running until his mid-40s, and by that point he wasn't going to be able to get in the shape a pro runner would be able to, but he got good enough to do 5ks, then 8ks, then even a half marathon. I remember asking him a few different times if he would consider running a marathon, and to be honest I can't really remember his answer, which saddens me, but I do know he had a great respect for runners, especially ones who can do marathons. I've never really shared his love of running, same with camping and the great outdoors in general. He was unfortunately father to 3 very introverted, non-active children, but he loved us all the same, even if we didn't share the same passions. I did do a couple 5ks with him during the brief time I was in college, before I got too depressed to go to class because I was homesick while at my dorm and dormsick when at home. Things were rough. But I did those 5ks with him, with barely any training, because procrastinating is the only way I know how to function, and I had a good time. I didn't stop, hell I didn't even think about it. I kept going, even if I was just walking. If I stopped to catch my breath I made sure I wasn't stopping for good. My dad finished both of them before me, and came back to walk me to the finish line both times, he was so happy to have that with me. I wish I had done more of it with him. This video helped me see why running meant so much to my dad. I wasn't just learning about this story, I was learning why I should care, it meant something to me to see that record broken, even though I'd never cared before, because I had never cared to grasp the scope or intensity of it, I had no reason to. If I could send him this video I would, but I found it 3 months too late. I know he would have appreciated someone talking so passionately about running passionately enough that its able to inspire me, even though all his effort to do the same failed. I know this is an overly serious comment for this video, but watching it the first time last night, it just struck a chord. It was exactly what I needed to see in exactly that moment, and it was enough to finally get me to properly cry over my dad for the first time since he died. I know that's silly and I'm painting a target on my back admitting that on the internet, but I feel it's worth saying here, so you know what an impact something you've made has had on someone else, even if you didn't intend it to affect someone like this. Your channel in general has helped in the goalsetting I've been working on in the wake of his death. I've especially wanted to learn skateboarding and at least one instrument, and to be able to make a piece of art, in whatever medium, that I feel proud to show to the world, no matter the feedback. It's hard to think about the future right after someone dies, but I know I have my whole life ahead of me, and you're never too old to learn something new.

[@vva100]

That was a really wonderful tribute to your dad. I wish you all the best. Now go learn to skate as well as how to play the guitar : )

I'm speculating that the answer to that is even more mind blowing. My guess is that he converts oxygen so efficiently that even at a 4:30 pace he just simply does not EVER reach a point of anaerobic gasping for breath before he reaches his lactic pain threshold or muscle failure. Which... I can't even imagine. Considering he had energy to play to the crowd at the finish line, exactly how far could he go and maintain (nearly) the same pace? Could he accomplish almost the same feat at twice the distance? What the heck are his limits?

[@mercymathitu6208]

He did a press round and a victory run. I walk three flights of stairs and I barely have the energy to open the door and collapse on the couch.

[@dfpguitar]

on this day he could have done it in around 20 seconds less I'd estimate. But being reserved is understandable. If he retains the same fitness and can get the support team and right weather again I'm sure he will beat this record.

[@814-OCE]

[@jcbanjo4150]

@@814-OCE A perfect set of strict favourable conditions to give him the best possible chance to run this phenomenal pace, he had 41 specific pacemakers that relayed every 4.8 KM, included in this group were former world record holders and Olympic champions devised to run in a V formation to reduce frontal wind pressure on an already completely falt course. Cyclists provided instant fluids along the entire route should he choose to use them. The infamous "Nike" sponsored car projected a rear beam to allow the group to visualise the required pace to run around 1.59.00, add to that specially designed runners and it doesn't read all to good, an astonishing feat although it rightly wont be recorded officially in the record books.

In recent years, we’ve seen a man run a sub-two hour marathon, a man free solo El Capitan, and a man and woman both run 200 mountainous miles in just around 50 hours. All three of these feats blow my mind.

This is something special. All these people focused on one person achieving their goal. We need to figure out how to extrapolate that to the rest of humanity.

Incredible, the average pace at which he ran for 2 hours is the top speed 200m for lot of humanity

I love how he always immediately greets his wife and family the second he crosses the line. He completely ignores the camera and crowd and goes straight for the people who love and support him. Before the finish, is for the crowd. During the finish is for the media. After the finish, when he's tired and emotional... that's just for his family. After they get his attention, then he can address the world.

The amazing thing is he doesn't look like he's running as fast as you were going on the treadmill.

[@738polarbear]

he wasnt running as fast as that treadmill . That was wrong.He was much more relaxed than that.

[@fufun4me]

@@738polarbear pros make things look easy. The stride was way off on the treadmill. Kipchoge was damn near jumping with each step Treadmill was set to 13. Kipchoge averaged 14.

[@JuBall1803]

because it is way easier to get this tempo while half jumping. on a treadmill i'm not able to run longer then 5 minutes because it is way to small for my normal stride length

[@clydea.hutchisoniv5742]

he's basically flying really low so his stride length is much longer and that makes his tempo slower. speed is a combination of stride length and tempo. the guy on the treadmill has short legs like me so he's never going to run as fast

[@personanon-grata]

@@738polarbear pros know the kind of form that uses the least amount of energy while covering the most amount of distance. Their shoulders are relaxed and their stride is longer. This guy has bad form and it makes it look like he is running faster.
