The answers before 2017 were typically "20-40 years from now" OR "it is not humanly possible."It is now inevitable that we will see a Sub-2-HOUR MARATHON, but when?When I researched this video, I found some fascinating stats.1925 - first sub 2:30, Albert Michelsen (USA)1953 - first sub 2:20, Jim Peters (UK)—70 years ago! 1963 - first sub 2:15, Leonard Edelen (USA)1967 - first sub 2:10, Derek Clayton (Australia)1988 - first sub 2:07, Belayneh Dinsamo (Ethiopia)2003 - first sub 2:05, Paul Tergat (Kenya) (at Berlin Marathon)NEXT 8 MARATHON WORLD RECORDS AT BERLIN MARATHON2008 - first sub 2:04, Haile Gebrselassie (Ethiopia)2014 - first sub 2:03, Dennis Kimetto (Kenya)2018 - first sub 2:02, Eluid Kipchoge (Kenya)2023 - first sub 2:01, Kelvin Kiptum (Kenya) (at Chicago Marathon)East African dominance started with Adebe Bikila in 1960, but really took off with the first sub-2:07 run in 1988. The super-shoe era started in 2017, with an incredible "BREAKING 2" marketing campaign from Nike at Monza race track in Italy, where we saw him run 2:00:25, miss the barrier, but catapult Nike's 4% shoe to fame. The marathon hasn't been the same since. When do you think we will see a sub-2-hour marathon?#motivation #running #fitness #marathontraining #berlinmarathon #berlinmajor #eliudkipchoge #kelvinkiptum
