I know as much or more about running than anyone. Kipchoge is not going to get the marathon world record. He is now slightly past his prime so how the hell is he going to get a record he could not get in his prime? The Ethiopian he beat yesterday, Kitata, might get the record but Kipchoge cannot.

No, you don't. And you're a coward as well. Post your email old fella and I'll take that bet...the one that you so conveniently ignored.

The attention is fine. Kipchoge will never hold the marathon world record. I really am making that point and I do think he might have had a shot at it if he had not done the sub 2 attempt. However the window is now shut. Having said that, Kipchoge might be better off for having received all this attention. That was never part of my point. Kipchoge could probably get more followers if he ran his next marathon naked. But he will never hold the world record, unless he became the owner of the fastest naked marathon.

youre inferring the attention is negative and a waste, he did it by actually running not come costume gimmick....
you clearly don't understand this sport the way you say you do or actually care about it, just your foolish notions and pride that you cant even back up with an email or real user name
I don't think he'll get the record either, but his performances have earned him the GOAT status at the marathon distance, which I would think is a better outcome than just a WR.
i can easily imagine that kipchoge is the man to break the wr, but there are a few unknown variables in the game like weather conditions and proper pacing. everything has to be just perfect and there are only just a few possibilities where it might happen.
kipchoge - no marathon WR
Evan Jager - no sub-8:00 steeplechase
hillary clinton - no presidency
genzebe dibaba - no one believes you're clean

All true and I'd bet him in a heart beat! Kipchoge will get under David's record within 2 years at most. Flat course and cool weather and he'll do it. Peppers pot is a bean brain.
Kipchoge can break the world record whenever he feels like it.
If he runs the next Berlin it will be his.
I've just read some of your posts and they are mind-bogglingly arrogant and stupid.
Kipchoge ran 2:04 low with a 61 flat first half, in 25C weather.
That is worth a world record in perfect conditions right there.

You can only go to the well so many times. Kipchoge had a chance to break the world record but that sub 2 hour attempt sealed his fate. Eliud will never break the world record now. Could he have? We will never know for sure.

Kind of a dumb assertion. The only two marathons Kipchoge has run since that have been in horrible running conditions for a marathon. One was hot, one had pouring rain. If in Berlin it isn't either, he will likely smash it. You are just making a big assumption that he won't break it.
I will add that if conditions were so bad in Berlin last year, it is interesting that an Ethiopian debuted with a 2:03:46. Not a bad debut in such awful conditions,
He'd have done it in London if not too hot
80f in sun

You are the one who lacks intelligence. Kipchoge will NEVER hold the marathon world record. Kipchoge is PAST his prime, albeit slightly. How dense are you? Kipchoge is not stupid, but apparently you think he is.

Do you understand the effects of heat on marathon performance?
Kipchoge's run in London when adjusted for the weather is worth well under the current WR.
He lost at least 90 seconds due to the heat, and likely more time from the terrible pacing also. Low 2:04 in that weather is frankly astounding.
His Berlin run against Adola turned into a race rather than a time trial anyway.

You likely have no money. You clearly are an idiot who does not even know who holds the world record in the marathon. The vast disparity in our respective intellects renders communication problematic, as my supremacy frustrates and humiliates you, to the point that you keep begging me for a wager so as to delude yourself into thinking you can be part of my orbit. Kipchoge will never hold the marathon world record and this is obvious to the intelligent.
