      • I can't wait to see him in Amsterdam. 2:02:34 would be sweat. Smashing the course record by that much. He always was the greatest. He will get better again and get the wr next year hopefully. I can't wait to see him.

      • Sweat elite sold out a long time ago. Now they just hype everything up to make a quick buck. I would not take anything they say as credible.

      • No, I predict 2:02:37...

        What "serious" person predicts a marathon time to the second (without some type of rounding).

        2:02:30 ok, you sound credible

        2:02:45 again that would be reasonable

        I would even accept 2:02:40

        ...but 2:02:34???

      • Super fast tempos are one thing. But what about his Yassos?
    • why only for these guys?

      • I wouldnt be surprised if 10 people go under 2:05. The weather is disgustingly perfect.

        Of course Chicago kinda sucked with the temp and dew point, and Toronto has 15mph winds tomorrow. So unfair to people who are trying to hit fast times but can't get weather like Bekele is getting tomorrow.

        Sweat elite predicts KB will run 2:02:34 based of a super fast tempo, but if KB gets it right couldnt he run faster then Kipchoge based of all the other times hes beat kipchoge in a non marathon setting

        Awful estimating on your part. With all due respect--Bekele might just be the GOAT of running in general, but he does not break 2:06 tomorrow....IF he finishes that is... and that's a big IF.
        I love the guy but you can't go by 2-6 year old performances; performances which he has not come anywhere close to since.
