Running at a consistent average pace of 2:50 minutes per kilometer (4:33.5 minutes per mile), Kipchoge was 11 seconds ahead of schedule halfway through his run.
"I am running to make history, to show that no human is limited. It's not about money, it's about showing a generation of people that there are no limits," Kipchoge said in his post-race interview. [玫瑰]
