That's not unique either, but Kipchoge seems to have everything in perfect balance. It's the mental strength that's the focus. He's clearly gifted, built to run fast, trains hard, but there's lots of athletes like that. Not just about the attempt, that's just the current goal, but the bedrock of running and being a runner. Here we get stories from trainers, coaches, pacemakers, physios, Eliud himself. How many people know that much about Kipchoge though, aside the world records and that he makes distance running look ridiculously easy. There was a lot of hype around this when it took place in Vienna in October 2019, so there's no real surprises. This is Eliud Kipchoge's attempt to be the first human to run a marathon in under 2 hours. Maybe not a huge surprise with Ridley Scott's son Jake at the helm. It's very stylised in places, beautifully shot sequences flexing the £4.5 mil budget. I was expecting another running documentary.
