I've seen more than a dozen of Eliud Kipchoge's Marathon races and it was apparent right from the beginning that his running strategy was completely different. He NEVER leads from the beginning! In his Olympic marathon races he did not run for time: he ran to win. Remember, they don't have pacers in Olympic races, just like Boston. In these races, he runs in the middle of the lead pack, getting protection behind runners. Same as when there are pacers: he runs about in 4th or 5th place, again sheltered. But in this 2023 Boston race, it seemed he was running for time (Course record?), not simply to win and no one would lead so he did what he almost never does and led from the start. It was him who pushed the pace, with others getting shelter behind. In most of the races he won, he holds back and "kills" them with around 8 k to go. It was his tactics that failed him this time. Also, he doesn't like running in cold, wet weather. This wasn't as bad as London but had the same result. Cheers

Everything just happened so fast after Kipchoge missed his water bottle. I wonder if that moment played with his mind for a little bit. One thing I won't say though, I don't think his performance had anything to do with age and don't believe he underestimated the Boston course. I just think the course itself is hard to figure out on the first try (or at all). I can see Kipchoge doing well and winning in New York and then hopefully returning to Boston next year. I would love to see him win all 6 majors.

How did you get this out so fast? lol. I've been on this all day with my video draft going during the race. Much respect for high speed and efficiency.

Put some respect on Kenenisa Bekele's name.

I’m just glad I got to stand there and see Eliud run up the street I drive on every single day. So surreal

Congrats to him! That was still a phenomenal finish! Some of us can only run a half marathon within that time! So many factors are at play with each race. I watched when he fell behind just around mile 20 and I was so anxious... Was rooting for him to catch up but the lead pack was just surging ahead and it didn't look like he was able to close the gap. Still so inspiring to see him finish. Hope he comes back next year and try again!

Great breakdown! This was the first race I saw live. Just got into running a few months ago and I did the research coming into this marathon. Amazing turnout and yeah I'm still rooting for Kipchoge in the next one!

I had a gut feeling he wouldn’t win, we all have bad race days and this doesn’t undo the world record, we know what he’s capable of, these days just happen.

Watching both the entire marathon where Eliud ran sub 2 and this marathon provided a great example of how humanizing and humbling this sport is. I had a bad race myself two days ago and seeing the goat fall off a pack like this helps me in a weird way. It’s good to know that one third of your races will always be bad no matter how great you are. Love the sport and love the people pushing it forward everyday.

I was at mile 7. So exciting just to see him. Even in the rain it was such a cool experience.

Great run from Chebet - hard to know exactly what happened with Kipchoge, hopefully he talks about it at some point in the future. Maybe though the combo of missing his drink right before the hills, feeling like a pacer, and the weather were all downers. And if any illness/injury behind scenes too of course. I don't think it's age per se, given he set the world record again only in autumn last year. Be interesting to see what he does, now - I get the sense he'd still like to get Olympic Gold again if possible, but maybe he will not race in the Majors again, or just at a flat course? Let's wait see.

Maybe just not Kipchoge's day, or possibly he wasn't used to the punishment to the legs given by Boston's downhill last several miles. I ran Boston in 1982 and 1983, and many other marathons in those days. Boston was the only course that left my legs so sore the next day, that I had to walk backwards down stairs! And in the race, I thought the hard part was over after getting through the uphills in pretty good shape, but those last downhill miles just killed me, and I slowed badly.

Great analysis

It was also cold and raining now at Boston marathon 2023 where he came position 6 Well done Goat🐐 for finishing the race. You will remain the greatest of all time🐐💚😊🙏

I turned on the race at the 10k mark and saw Conner Mantz at the lead pack. I felt that he was going too fast. Despite his fast start I think he did pretty good. I wasn't happy with his place and time but his time should have been slower due too fast start. He must have been grinding at the end. Still cheering for you Conner .

Kipchoge himself never makes any excuses for a loss, but London 2020 already showed that he can be vulnerable in bad weather conditions. Still, he's not the only great champion who underperforms in bad weather, the great David Rudisha wasn't particularly fond of rain and chilly conditions either.
