Be astonished.

Tell about it."

Kipchoge....1st human to run sub 2 hour marathon.....

One hour, 59 minutes, 40 seconds.

No human is limited.....Eliud Kipchoge

     Watching him finish was epic....a bit like watching man's first steps on the moon.
   
      Hoping to see Kipchoge and Bikele, the 2 best marathoners in the world, complete in the 2020 Olympics.

    I watched the video ... all of it. I am not so interested in running but am amazed with the strength and concentration. And with the passion others feel about this sport.
    I would have never found this video except for following blogs.
    With the ugliness we read about today it is refreshing to read positive news and about real heroes and heroines.

      I, too, love demonstrations of amazing human endurance.
