    Did you guys hear the news about the new marathon record?

    (CNN)Kenyan Olympic champion Eliud Kipchoge set a new marathon
    world record Sunday, winning the Berlin race in 2 hours,
    1 minute and 39 seconds.

    (CNN) Kipchoge finished with "a new world record that will be
    remembered for decades," the Berlin Marathon tweeted,
    describing him as "the greatest marathon runner of all times."


    2:01:39????

    Is a sub 2 hour marathon possible in my lifetime?

    (CNN) Kenyans Amos Kipruto finished second in 2:06:23
    and Wilson Kipsang was third in 2:06:48.

    Really? 5 MINUTES ahead of second place!!!!
    Amazing!
