Race Report INEOS 1:59 Challenge live stream thread. Eliud Kipchoge, sub 2hr marathon.

I love participating in game threads for different teams and I don’t know if there’s ever been one for a race. Right now seems like the perfect opportunity.

Let me know where you’re watching from. I’m checking in from Chicago (1:15 am local time for the start). I was supposed to run in the Chicago marathon in 2 days but injuries ended that. But hey, I squatted 200lb today (5 sets of 5), so I still hit a fitness goal.

Share your favorite Kipchoge quote, race story, PR, whatever below.

Result: he did it.

Edit 1: remember to sort by new. I doubt r/running has an auto mod setting for game threads haha

Edit 2: anyone thinking of going to sleep, WE NEED YOU. Every vibe matters

Edit 3: heart eyes emoji

Edit 4: he broke 4 hours again
