Kiptum Smashes World Record - Full Chicago Recap! 

Great recap! I don't know what is more amazing, Kiptum's world record or Sifan's range? She remains in the absolute top of the world elite on every distance from 1.500m to marathon. Incredible!

Omg his third ever marathon and he smashes the World record 😯.And a sub 2:02 debut. We have a star on our hands. Congratulations Kiptum🎉

THANK YOU for being so inclusive in your video. Wheelchairs and Winners male and female. You are awesome

I think younger runners coming into the marathon events will make a big difference. Your peak strengths and endurances are during your early 20s and many great runners run track first until their 30s and switch to marathon. Imagined if they ran marathon before track? Jacob, Hassan, Chetepgh, or Kipsang would run fast times in marathons if they focused more on the event. Like hybrid runners for speed and distances.

I can always count on you for a good recap to the latest marathon. What a great race! I'm so excited to continue seeing what is possible in this sport!

Really enjoying this, thank you!

I am feeling pleased with my 3:49:55 at Munich on the same Sunday but these runners are on another planet.

Great analysis, thank you. I subscribe!

Unreal coverage! Thanks so much! Personally stayed up until 1:30am in Aus, so dam worth it

I live in Chicago and my friends and I followed the elite field for most of the race. It was unbelievable!!

Awesome video and energy!

Great recap!!

Yes, this is a good video commentary. ... as long as kelvin dont get burnout too early in his young career, i think marathon racing is up. That kelvin is such a heroic marathoner. Tks 4 good video.

Fantastic recap. Thank You. Just wondering if Molly got her "prescription" approved? Haven't seen anything on that.

Thank you for your Chicago Marathon coverage! Liked and Subscribed, as my first time visiting your channel. I have a few thoughts about two unbelievable human marathoners, Eliud and Kelvin. I do not think Eliud Kipchoge will fade away, for perhaps a few years yet. He and his team have set a Marathon template that encourages others to use. The synchronicity of these two, Kiptum and Kipchoge, running a human endurance clinic for us to marvel at while sensationally promoting The Marathon, shows us "No Human is Limited." - Eliud Kipchoge. Kelvin Kiptum is a fine example of Eliud's quote. Next year is going to be absolutely thrilling for the Marathon, with the Olympic Games in Paris the Showcase Highlight. This is one reason: Only three men in history have won *two* Olympic Games Marathon Gold Medal victories; Abebe Bikila, Waldemar Cierpinski and Eliud Kipchoge. In 2024, Eliud Kipchoge has the very rare opportunity to become the only man in history to win three. What the final Olympic Games Marathon results might be are everyone's best guess, but there are at least two men walking around on the planet who have a really good idea. I am looking forward to next year with growing anticipation.

Great review of an amazing marathon with such incredibly talented runners. Des Linden's American master record was awesome too! Her 2:27:35 broke Deena Kastor's record set in 2015.

So similiar to the sub 4 mile explosion trend back in the day

Everyone clearly brought their all, go for the 4 course record winners!

Nice video. You totally missed out on the defending champion in the women's race, that battle between Sifan and Chepngetich was epic and correction, she finished second not Sisson.

2:51/km is just insane🤯 can’t even do that in 10secs

Where do you watch this and other marathons? I subscribed to Flo Track a while back, but it's either poor quality (Boston no sound) or "not available in your area" (Chicago). Today, I got up at 5 am. to watch live (because otherwise, I have to avoid all media to avoid spoilers, like "Kiptum Smashes World Record") but got that message of unavailability. It took me until 20 minutes in before i could figure out live coverage (by then it was just tge two runners up front in either M or F. Had to watch it through NBC Chicago News via Peacock, but this coverage was too much on spectators and celebrations and not enough on the runners. Seems like people are able to watch and make reviews. I just can't find out where.

My money is on Kiptum. He is 23 and can get much much better

Do you think they are doping? Some days ago I run 1200 meters solo and did 3'27"37. And I was on the ground agonizing for some minutes.

Watched your recap . Interestingly you didn't highlight Ruth Chepngetich , found the recap a bit biased. I had to actually confirm the woman who finished second

something going on with this guy. He said he wasnt even tired at the end and he felt no pain. 8.45 2 mile at 20 miles and no pain, something going on

As a former ametur cyclist I tend to get suspicious of new earas. What are they doing radically different than before in training, nutrition etc? Is ther an objective reason why marathon records are being broken left and right? Perhaps Im just a killjoy, but I rather like to be clear eyed and keep a cool head about these things. Why is this happening all of a sudden?

Was Ruth Chepngetich name so hard to mention, the third fastest woman before this and two times defending champion? You totally missed it and compared Sifan win with Sisson who finished almost 10 minutes after her😮

If you’re not from Kenya or Ethiopia and you want to win a major marathon…..

6th at the Valencia half in 2020. 8th in 2021. Then jumps to marathon and all the sudden he's the goat. He's running 180 miles per week with no coach, new found talent, and staying healthy. That's drugs. Pretty obvious. iykyk

How is it possible? Well a 2:08 guy which Kiptum is very much legit can take say a PED schedule that has been shown to increase performance 5% and wear a shoe that gives another 1-5% depending on the persons response and boom there is your 2:00 marathoner.

Comparing Hassan with Sisson or Lidnden makes no sense at all.

It's the shoes...

Kiptum is the REAL deal everything being equal. I have my fears...nonetheless, he needs to be protected from himself.

Really against Des lol come on elite women marathoners go through 5k at about her 5k PR 😆

Gotta start legitimately drug testing and limiting shoe technology

It’s the shoes. Period. Just like golf when they allowed changes, trampoline effect is ridiculous. Not really the same sport at elite level.
