On April 28, the world was ecstatic holding breath on what the fastest marathoner of all times Eliud Kipchoge had in store for them. As expected, Eliud didn’t disappoint; he ran the London Marathon course knocking off his own 2016 record and second fastest marathon time ever run at 2:02:37 — a man simply competing against himself.
One thing not much talked about in that London race is that Eliud led a pack of the fastest top three in any marathon, much credit to the two Ethiopians.
