Robbie sucks a bit. He talked about shoes for the whole 13 minutes, and forgets the number of athletes who were tested before breaking bad, his diet his training – until minute 12.
And it is a World Record. A sub par interview and analysis. Wasted time and didn’t even go into the entire 4 year journey to this

I don’t recall Roger Bannister drafting behind a car and five runners, on a track or with shoes let alone real-time hydration monitoring, just a small part of the whole team supporting him in his record attempt. Which come to think of it wasn’t even an attempt, but just another race. But oh well. Even aided, still pretty fast.

Lemme see any of you run a 2 hour marathon with literally any type of shoes of your choice 🙄😂 respect the man, he put his blood sweat and tears into what he loves and he achieved one of the biggest feats in running history. He has my respect.

There is no “controversy” here…give me the same shoes and I will still complete the marathon after 6hours

The sub 1:40 800m and the sub 19 200m are the last great running barriers left

Let’s be clear. Roger Bannister ran in an actual race on a cinder track using the same kit as everyone else. He had pacers but only his friends. This wasn’t an actual Marathon race or actual Marathon course – it was basically Zwift in the real world. Amazing – yes. Comparable to Bannister – only if you drink the Ineos/ Nike koolaid. His actual Marathon world record is only 1.30 slower- in an actual race which is way more impressive to me.

Can someone explain to me, why is reducing 2 minutes of your running time is touted as a historical feat.Don’t get me wrong,Kipchoge is a legendary athlete no doubt but he also ran a marathon in 2 hours and 2 minutes.So when he finally made it in almost 2 hours it became an incredible feat?It was just a 2 minute difference!!

I’ve seen the documentary where he tried the 2 hour barrier and barely failed, and it was a HUGE success for me already. So happy to hear that he got the 2 hour mark. I also give kudos to the other players who were training with Mr Kipchoge (forgot their names though), too. No matter the technology, the athletes are the source of the inspirations.
