If he is and was always clean, GOAT if he is even close to WR.

40k @ 1:56:55, 3:04 last km

they are 16-18 seconds off world record. u can tell kipsang is pushing but bekele looks fresh and sitting behind.

1:56:55 40k

2km to go. This is epic!

Bekele has got this.

2km to go. This is epic!

2.03.19 projected time

Low 2:40 pace is going to be needed from here to finish for WR. Probably not...but maybe one of them really has something left.

Me too.

kebede over dibaba by a minute. Probably 2:19:30 or so

kipsang tries to be sneaking around drinks stop and surges. bekele easily gets back on after picking up a drink.

Gotta like Bekele with 2 K to go , yes?

Bekele going for it.
