Prague Marathon 2018 last kilometers

[@lanagorgeous9485]

Oh I love Galen and feel for him. I ran cross country in HS and after one race my sophomore year I got sick like that. Lots of runners know that feeling, pushing so hard till there is nothing left. Great Job Galen :)

[@conrad9698]

Galen is a beast....cruise control!! Congrats to all winners

[@blackwatch_TV]

This is the show we were hoping for in Boston, played out on much more beautiful course. Great day for USA, Rupp, Salazar and ORPJT

[@danielburke3804]

Yes, a true race

[@bearmerica6668]

I remember being in a marathon training club in Houston, when we had this massive rain, it came down in buckets and people died in the flood that day. I didn't do the morning run because I didn't want my car flooded. I get this email from the club after saying we were sorta like pussies because we are either a runner or not (those that didn't show up). Obviously, there were 60% elite runners not real runners at Boston in 2018 while those non elites braved it and finished.

I love and miss Prague so much! Old Town Square is so gorgeous! What a great place to have a marathon =). Great job, Galen!

[@pukulu]

Galen Rupp is tall for a marathon runner but a lot of his height comes from his long torso. His conditioning is superb. Few runners are good enough to challenge the best of the Kenyans and Ethiopians but Galen Rupp might be one of them. www.iaaf.org/athletes/ethiopia/sisay-lemma-277047 Lemma has thick legs like Kenenisa Bekele.

"he hasnt pushed too hard"...pukes on the finish line

[@ShaneLavell]

Sometimes too much of an energy replacement drink brings on the need to vomit. Has happened to me a few times. You feel fine just the need to rid yourself of the extra fluid. Bob Kempainen demonstrates this on the fly at the 1996 USA Men's Olympic Trials-kzbin.info/www/bejne/nIPZo6unobSGpqs

Pressure Drop. He made a constant effort for about 2 hours and he stoped brutally. Those things happen

[@ryandarricott4224]

When the body can't get rid of the waste product lactate acid vs the rate of production in the muscles the body only has one way left to try get rid of it and that's by throwing up. His increase of speed over the last 5 kilometers to break Sisay was exceptional but came at a price. Most of the time this throwing up occurs during training but sometimes it happens in the spotlight :)

[@angelasmithson5291]

I do a lot of walking for health and a few years ago I took up jogging and almost threw up, never done it before and decided running just wasn't for me, hated it at school too!! 😐🏫

So many people are hating on Rupp saying he's doping. Even if he was it still takes lots of training and dedication to be a world class marathoner. Rupp is a beast and kicking ass in the marathon stop hating on him. None of you making these rupp doping comments could take EPO and be anywhere close to rupp's ability.

[@lucianoninja2206]

Show americano muito bom

[@hj.menkoo]

galen looking very strong on a tough course

[@caelebdodd128]

love Sisays running style, he always looks so strong

[@jameshaney171]

I really like the running form of the Ethiopian Sisay. He has a quick stride and it appears effortless even though he was struggling toward the end. I believe that the most economical form belongs to the Ethiopian. Galen Rupp won the race less about his running form but more about conserving energy for the late stages of the race, it worked for him. Sisay was less than a minute behind Rupp but Sisay ran the more courageous race even as he showed fearlessness in keeping the pace honest. In fact, had it not been for Sisay, Rupp would not have had set his Personal Best for the Marathon. Rupp's strategy is sort of hit or miss at times, but generally when the E. Africans make their move, they generally hold on to the lead even having another gear at their disposal just in case.

[@waterproof4403]

Rupp is still a great runner. When he wins tho the winning time is well over 2:05 or 6. Sisay just London marathon 2021 in 2:04:01. He beat an absolute elite field that day

Meeting my sub 4hr target and achieving my first marathon with out injury were achievable because of this marathon training “Zοrοtοn Axy” (Google it). The book gives a lot of great info about training program, diet plan, strategy, etc. but the very useful page in the whole book is the training schedule which informs you how far to run on what day. .

There’s no way Rupp could run a 2:02 and not win the race, that would literally tie or be the official world record for the marathon.

[@joekiron9456]

Bryan Fisher he could run 202 but it no guarantee that the time will win the race. It is a fact that in some major races the top 10 guys or studs will run sub 206 but only be good for 6th or 10th place. No wonder Ryan Hall quit. It is no longer a marathon but a long sprint home.
