el keniano are you ready to admit the extent of doping within kenyan running?
No. At lower tiers, maybe.
When someone like Diana Kipyokei, who no one's ever heard of, comes out of nowhere, wins her only major race which just so happens to be Boston, then vanishes just as quickly into the ether, it's suspicious but not always a given.
Kipchoge has a very strong cross country background. He won a few titles in his cross-country days.So Boston won't be a big challenge to him as long as he gets in the millage and good training this winter. I think his only challenge will be running a slow marathon race.All his races have been fast.He thrives in a fast pace race even during his track years he did well in races that were fast but not as much in slow tactical races.
Yes, unless there is gale force winds and rain. Kipchoge takes CR. Who is going to beat him? Kipchoge will know every foot of that course before he races it, and he will of course strategically plan when he says goodbye to the rest of the field.

Let’s not forget Grete Waitz DNFd her only Boston, dropping out late in the race while she was in the lead. The cumulative effect of miles of downhills on the quads cannot be understated.

What are you talking about? He won both Rio and Tokyo Olympics in 2:08
I think the only way he can be beaten is with nasty weather call it cold and windy or wet. Otherwise he is unbeatable. Remember when he lost in London it was windy and cold he is used to run flat courses and perfect weather conditions. With bad weather he is definitely vulnerable.
There is a stretch outside of kenmore square about mile 24.5 ish….you can see them come down the hill from Coolidge corner and see then go up the hill over highway into kenmore
Go west from citco sign tends not to be crazy crowded there
If you’re looking for cheap: Stay in a Hotel that’s commuter rail or Orange line accessible, with final stop North Station. You can take the T - Green or Red Lines either to the finish, Kenmore, or to avoid huge crowds I’d recommend the D line to Reservoir and either stay at Cleveland Circle or walk to Heartbreak Hill, where you can settle on a huge grass median on Commonwealth Ave.
