Still awaiting official results, but Kiplimo has just run under the WR , winning by over 2minutes, running the entire race (after 2 or 3k) alone. I am not sure if the course is record eligible but I believe it is (I think where Tadese ran 58:23). An unreal performance from the still very young Kiplimo.
Someday he may be the first man to run under 2 hours in a legit marathon.
He or Kandie or Ronex or Kamworor or someone else.
Kiplimo has a local coach, Peter Chelangat.
He passed 15k in 40’30. Think on that: it’s 13’30/5k pace.
Go to your local trap and run one lap in 65 seconds.

3 x 13:30 in a row!Insane!!
Would that be a bear trap or a beaver trap ?

Did they get the 20K time? 54:xx?
Is there a replay of the race anywhere?
We are very proud of one of our greatest sons today. Uganda has shown the way forward for distance running again!

The reported 15k split was 40:27, which makes more sense - 40:00 would mean he went from 2:40 per km to 2:52 per km for the last 6.1 km.

Sorry…disregard my post as I can’t read, you said 40:30 and I thought you wrote 40:00. 😔
The 15k split was faster than cheptegei's 15k road WR time of 41:05ish
Yeah what a beast. Epo works and the athletes are always a step ahead of the testers. The testing system is too easy to understand and predictable, so circumvention is easy, especially since it's so easy to rid your system of the remnants of the PED. He didn't look otherworldly at the Olympics. The testing was more stringent. He was free to reload after the Olympics and get ready to make bank off a wr on the roads. He did just that. Congrats because most off the others at the top are bent off PEDs too let's be real here.

Please elaborate on your direct knowledge of the testing pool, circumvention methods and the habits of the top athletes. Surely you must know some of them?

Every time an African runner runs a great time people scream about doping and yet the same people were bending over backwards to defend Houlihan. Pathetic

Yes the olympics are perfectly akin to a time trial which is why the fastest man alive matthew centrowitz has a gold medal.

WTF! This is so crazy. I didn't even know Lisbon was today or Kiplimo was running. We need results, articles, and race videos
