We now have 3 guys under 2:03. Kipchoge, Kimmetto, and now Geremew.
Only if Geremew had ran that time last year, he could have had the world record until Kipchoge ran Berlin.
Kipchoge now has his complete set:
2:00:25
2:01:39
2:02:38
2:03:05
2:04:xx
2:05:xx
What's next for this guy?
Wish he would do a sub2 again! I am pretty sure if he ask Nike, they would do it. If Zersenay or Desisa ask, they probably say no.

Is there an American marathoner who could have hung with Kipchoge for the last 5K if the American started fresh with 5k to go?
Yes, but only if it was run underwater.
Callum Hawkins result very impressive.
That guy in third is a real workhorse.
I'd say Mo was done with the marathon but did he ever really get started?
Some track elites aren't cut out for the distance and should know when to quit before destroying themselves. It is clear Mo is a 2:05 guy at his peak.

Geremew looks annoyed people want to take his picture after he ran 2:02:55. Makes you appreciate Kipchoge and Kipsang for being excited about being fast
I don't know why this annoys me so much. Guy runs one of the fastest times ever and shows no emotion.
Consider he's really really tired?
I see he was 2nd in Chicago with 2:05:24
So if those are his 3 marathons, he is indeed freaking good!

Today was utterly brutal. Today Kipchoge was in complete control. Only aduck2022 knows what the women's winner was on, she scorched it.

Galen Rupp?
Are my maths right on Kosgei? Did she run 71.38/66.42? That’s 16 sec faster than Mary in NY, second half
Just think - Mo would only have been 6th if Kiptum hadn't been busted.

+1
He said he wanted a 2:02 after the WR in Berlin.

Don't worry. He'll disappear for awhile, then reappear before Farah's next marathon to talk $hit again. He's like that chancre sore in your mouth that comes back in the same place when you're sick.

So great to see his recovery now from the CWG's.

He also didn't look tired. Shades of Tefera breaking the indoor 1500 world record and looking bored
Last 600 meters of the race

His ridiculous behaviour of the last week certainly didn't help his preparation for today.
