Incredibly, Kipchoge was even able to wave to the crowds as he sprinted towards the finish line, where his wife Grace greeted him.

In jubilant scenes Kipchoge was somehow able to keep running as he celebrated with the crowd before being hugged by his INEOS team-mates.

” We can make this world a beautiful world and a peaceful world. My wife and three children, I am happy for them to come and witness history.

“The positively of sport, I want to make it a clean sport and an interesting sport. “

      Eliud Kipchoge speaks! “I am feeling good. After Roger Bannister in 1954 it took another 63 years, I tried and I did not get it – 65 years, I am the first man – I want to inspire many people, that no human is limited. ”

Here come the final pacemaker team …

Ten minutes remaining. And Kipchoge is six seconds clear!

      Eliud Kipchoge’s wife, Grace, is watching very nervously: “I am nervous but also excited. I am happy for him.

The last five kilometer splits have all been at precisely 2: 50 each.

An incredible effort from Kipchoge and his team.

Kipchoge is on target in his bid to run an unofficial sub-two hour marathon as he completed the first half of his attempt at Vienna’s Prater Park.

The 34 – year-old marathon world record holder completed the first 21 kilometers in 59. (minutes, 11 seconds under the two-hour pace.

Howe ver, there were a few spots of rain which had not been expected and which could hamper his attempt.

For those just joining us, Kipchoge is making very good progress.

He has hit the hour-mark with a healthy 11 seconds to spare.

The projected finish time is currently 1: 59: 48.

A reminder: The sport’s governing body, the IAAF, will not recognize the run as an official record because it is not in open competition and it uses in and out pacemakers.

Kipchoge, 34, the reigning Olympic champion who set an official world record of 2: 01 . 39 at the Berlin marathon in September last year, missed out by 26 seconds when he previously attempted to break the two-hour barrier in Monza in May 2017, a race run without spectators.

Who is Kipchoge?

                                                                                                                                                                                                     

Kipchoge is perhaps the best candidate in the world to attempt such a historic achievement in breaking the two-hour barrier for the marathon.

                                                                                                                                                                                                        

A four-time champion of the London marathon, having won the last two editions, as well as a two-time winner in Berlin and a solitary victory in Chicago to go with his Olympic gold medal.                                                                                                                                                                                                      

What is the 1: (challenge?)

                                                                                                                     

Ineos have sponsored the event, which will take place around the 4.3km stretch on the Prater Hauptallee in Vienna, Austria, with 4.4 laps required to complete the marathon distance.

                                                                                                                     

Elevation will remain comfortably flat, though it will fluctuate between 1.8 and 4.0 meters. One request of Kipchoge since Nike Breaking2 was to involve fans, meaning the route will be lined by spectators in order to provide him with support.
