Kipchoge runs 2 hours for a full marathon at 57 kg, thats damn fast but Would you be more impressed at someone who weighs almost 4 times kipchoge (200 kg; 440 pounds) and runs sub 4 hour marathon?

Anyone weighing 440 pounds and running without being chased is impressive
The sub-4:00 challenge would be more impressive.
Donut stops every 5km during the race!
Can a 200 kg person really run a mile? Pictures I see of these type of people are always lying in bed.

2 hour marathon at 57 kg is equivalent to a 4:17 marathon for 200 kg. So someone running sub 4 while weighing 200 kg would be, in my opinion, more impressive than Kipchoge running 2 hours. I would wonder, however, what such a person would run if they lost at least half their weight.
They should have weight classes for races.
In fact, it would make track more entertaining if they just had 3 or 4 distances, and each distance several weight classes.
For example :
100m
1000m
3000m
With three weight classes for each ; lightweight, middleweight, heavyweight.

I would be more impressed with someone who weighs 8 times Kiochoge (400kg: 880 pounds) walks 1km.
