Finally here it is, 2 days to go, and supposing to happen on 12 Oct 2019.

Can he do it this time? 

This may not be of interest to many ppl, but a good message to remind us to try for the impossible.

The human mind and body, can be unlimited, and it does not apply only to sports..[laugh][laugh][laugh]

To run 42km in under 2 hrs...that's insanely fast.

Even if you give me a pmd to do 10km/hr somewhere in the middle of the run it's still difficult for me to run under 2hrs.😂

From a driver's perspective, he has to run faster than 21.1 km/hr.

Yes I am rooting for him to break 2:yuush:

In view of bekele recent Berlin performance, he has extra motivation.

Expand  

His coach and  training partners are all saying that is not a matter of can he break, their question is 1:58 or 1:59...^_^

He has to send a message to Bekele, " f**k you dont come so close!"..[laugh][laugh][laugh]

Please update when live telecast comes. Will watch. 

Expand  

Looks like its fixed tomorrow, but no updates yet on the starting time, very likely 11am local time (5am vienna), because they dont want the race to go beyond  2pm local time ( 8am vienna). 

They are really making it an ideal condition to not only break 2, but go way lower man..

Anyone happen to see the timing release later evening pls update us!!! Thank you all...[laugh][laugh][laugh]
