...a good little documentary on Eliud Kipchoge’s sub 2-hour marathon! And yes, I will admit I cried a little bit again when he crossed the finish line πŸ˜‚.

Available on iPlayer for 26 more days; full title Eliud Kipchoge: My Sub Two-Hour Marathon.

He has to be one of the loveliest people in running, too.

Enjoy!

Time only matters if you are trying to break a world record! Just getting out and running is a win for me. 😁

Yes, that’s true. Getting out running is the best therapy you can getπŸ™‚πŸ‘

If I was 30 years younger though his record would definitely be at risk! 🀣🀣

Just watched this, I'd never have found it without your recommendation. Fascinating and good to see he seems a very grounded genuine person.
