Full Analysis of Kipchoge's Sub-2-Hour Marathon (Nike AlphaFly)

Eliud Kipchoge's Ineos 1:59 Challenge is all done now and after two days of reflecting on this event and tremendous effort by Kipchoge, I'm not ready to give my opinion and analysis. I also sprinkle in a little history of the marathon into this vlog as well. Eliud Kipchoge will go down as the first man to break two hours in the marathon, but most definitely he has simply opened up the door for other marathon runners to chose down this benchmark in long-distance running. The sub-two-hour marathon was once thought impossible, but no longer, no longer. Congratulations to Eliud Kipchoge and the entire pacing team, along with the organizers of the INEOS 1:59 challenge, for achieving the first-ever sub-2-hour marathon! ?
