Official 2018 Berlin Marathon Live Thread

So was there a time bonus for breaking 2:02'??

Dibaba is still my #1

Kipchoge confirmed GOAT.

Here is a little trivia -

Kipchoge is now the World Record holder and reigning Olympic Champion.

How many other runners have held this simultaneous standing in the Marathon?

Kejelcha 59:17 PR for 4th

Hassan 1:05:15 for the win. Damn! I see a 1:03:50 in her future!

Bikilia, Zatopek

Absolutely bizarre and impossible to understand.

Norway and Sweden should hold an intervention session for Denmark. "Denmark, we have seen your language going down south the past century, and we don't know how worse it is going to get if it continues this way, even though it may seem that this is rock bottom. "

You’ve never heard Glaswegian.

Google it and listen. Then Danish will sound like a beautiful melody.

My man Nakamura first clean finisher. Solid performance.

11 days after a 3:32 1500m, finish right behind Manangoi

Marathon times are getting so crazy that Kipsang's sub-2:07 for third place almost seems like a disappointment.

He actually sped up in the second half of the race. Just floored it after going out at 20 seconds under the record.

Feet pooping off the ground, and just looks easy.

That's disgusting.

Very calm and even all the way. Very nice.

They should not be on the same course with runners!

I didn't know that the handbikers are retards also...

LOL!

I could live in there.

I just wanted to mention if no one else did that the espn.com story was wrong because the Japanese runner was not even close to the nr, which is around 2:06:16 (Arata? or was this just broken this year?), and what a sign of never coming to terms with German doping that the German telecast had Dieter Baumann as a commentator!??

Didn´t you read what I just wrote. It´s a Vaporfly with a modified midsole.

So he is wearing vaporfly!

"It's the same shoe, but with different midsole?"

I don't care, but I want to buy this Vaporfly with modified midsole. This improved Vaporfly. LRC staff, are you going to clear up the shoe issue?
