No human had ever achieved it. No human before him. But “no human is limited” and on Saturday, Eliud Kipchoge proved it brilliantly, completing the challenge sponsored by INEOS.

Through the streets of Vienna, the Kenyan ran the marathon in less than two hours. He even smashed the symbolic bar, given that after months of preparation, he ran the 42.195km in 1 hours, 59 minutes and 40 seconds.
