1:12.24 after 25km, 44 seconds under WR pace.

Closing in on 30km Kipchoge is only going faster and faster...he needs to, because 30-35km from Kimetto was insane.

I'm wondering which one is correct, the list of split times I posted earlier (which ends in the correct WR) or the graphics, there's like 15-20 seconds difference between them  

[heywoodu 15,141]

Kimetto at 35km: 1:41:47, which is the 'world record' at that distance. 

[heywoodu 15,141]

RIP Kimetto's 35km WR, 1:40.57

Are you like that Eurosport commentator, who says that going sub-2 hours is IMPOSSIBLE?

[heywoodu 15,141]

Kipchoge survived Kimetto's best part very well, now there's not a single kilometer anymore where Kimetto had some insane split...

Of course it's not  

 

The laws of nature don't care about a made up limit like '2 hours'

Also, it's not on Eurosport here, I'm watching German TV and they haven't mentioned 2 hours even once except for that attempt by Kipchoge
