BERLIN MARATHON 2022: ELIUD KIPCHOGE BREAKS HISTORY, NO HUMAN IS LIMITED. 2.01.09
Eliud Kipchoge added yet another chapter to his matchless career by running a world record time of 2:01:09 thanks to a mesmeric display of distance running at the BMW Berlin Marathon today.
The 37-year-old Kenyan scalped a further 30 seconds from his former world record set four years ago (2:01:39) in the German capital and he also claimed a record-equalling fourth BMW Berlin Marathon victory. For the first 24k of the race, Kipchoge had the help of NN Running Team athletes Noah Kipkemboi and Moses Koech who ran as his pacers.
An elated Eliud said: “No limitations, after 38k I knew I would be capable of breaking the world record. Circumstances were great, and so was the organization of the event. I’m really happy with today and impressed by the fans and their support.”
Today was the 15th victory in 17 career marathons for Kipchoge and his tenth triumph in an Abbott World Marathon Major. He is also a double Olympic marathon champion and in 2019 became the first man in history to run a sub-two-hour marathon as part of the INEOS 1:59 Challenge (unratified for world record purposes)
