Record broken!

Did you guys see that Kipchoge did the sub 2 marathon? HOLY CRAP!

I saw that! What a big few days for running!

Also, I can’t even imagine running that fast for that long. That’s like running around my high school 400 time for an entire marathon.

It's amazing! Reading about some of the technology that was used was really interesting, too.

I’ll have to look in to the technology. I haven’t read about that angle yet.

I feel like I'm such a cynic.

Yeah yeah records broken.

They are al doping lol. Sorry to shatter dreams.

[bullygirl979]

foundmylazybum, I totally agree that a lot of them are. I do think there are some who just have legitimate talent.

I definitely think Kipchoge was micro dosing. 🤷‍♀️

Sure.
There are multiple reasons: kipchoge is a Kenyan and overall Kenyan system of drug testing is known to be..how should I say it. Not clean. This is well known and if youd like to know more just google it.

Also, he is a Nike athlete at the very, very top of his career. I think a lot of people right now are confusing things like NOP being shady and Alberto Salazar being shady and then almost siloing that club.

No! It's a systems problem in nike, in nike clubs, and beyond that in running.

Entire countries are doping and they are very. Very. Very good at it. Like it would blow your mind. Again I recommend the documentary "Icarus" to learn more about this. It's about Russia but the concept applies.

Also, and finally. Everything about this event was staged to get it done.

Honestly, you are going to have the highest of every single thing fro. Timing, to shoes to nutrition to pacing to course...and the not microdose? If you read between the lines I kind of think they had doping control in place but not even everyone was tested. Its unclear if he was esp. Bc it wasnt an official event!
