He's effectively describing doping but doesn't realise it.
Based on Kelvin's biomechanical form and technique, both frequency and amplitude of vibration of his arms and legs, it's impossible that he had used drugs. The frequency is simply too resonant. Kipchoge is nowhere as resonant like Kelvin. You could think of resonant like 'chi' force.

You don't know it but you're still describing doping.
You haven't seen or handled a pendulum have you? Have you seen a pendulum in close to vacuum or close to absolute zero temperature? It oscillates forever with very little loss in motion or energy. But a pendulum is too big in mass and if we could use a subatomic particle and send it into oscillation then it could sometimes oscillate with greater energy than it was supposed to just by leveraging energy from the zero-point field.
Kiptum isn't the only one on drugs. Yours are something special.
When someone runs that fast at the end of the marathon, I think they're doping. Its like when Rita Jeptoo did the same thing at Boston. Then she got caught doping with EPO 5 months after her 3rd Boston win. Or Liliya Shobahkova is another who had a super fast last 10k because they were doping.
You have to think Kiptum is unbeatable right now, unless he's injured. If someone ran 2:06 but closed the second half in sub-60, you'd think it was amazing. Kiptum is doing that but running the first half in 60-61. Nobody on earth can live with that, it's absurd. I'll stan for Kipchoge forever, but he can't compete with a guy who runs the second half of his marathons.in sub-60.
Kiptum seems like a very likable guy, I really hope is not doped......but 4:36/mile is really hard to fathom for 26 miles...running 69 second 400M's really mind blowing
I'm treating professional running with the same attitude as the MLB back in the late 90s to early 2000s. Deep down you know there's something going on, but you can still be entertained by the spectacle. I wouldnt be surprised if a lot of these pro runners get thrown under the bus at some point, much like the home run leaders of the MLB did after they were deemed expendable by the league. It is what it is. Enjoy the show but dont be naive.
