At 8:10 Beijing time, the participants of the Tokyo Marathon set off in front of the Tokyo Metropolitan Government Headquarters building. Elite marathon athletes such as Kipchak and Hassan participated in the male and female podium competition..
Kipchak, who will turn 40 at the end of this year, will once again come to Tokyo. Whether he can defend his title and break records will be the biggest highlight of this Tokyo Marathon. On the women’s side, Hassan has returned to Tokyo where she will pursue her third Grand Slam marathon championship..
At the beginning of the competition, Kipchak continued to run at the first group’s C position, and the first ten kilometers were all at a high speed within the three speed distribution range..
The first five kilometers of gentle descent took 14 minutes and 16 seconds, reaching 8 kilometers. The first group began to split, with three players falling behind. Within 30 minutes of clocking in at the first ten kilometers, the first group screened less than 10 people, indicating that Qiao Shen Group’s speed was very fast..
At the 10 km/h time mark of 28 minutes and 32 seconds, the Kipchoag Group took time and ran at a speed of 250 per kilometer!.
In terms of the men’s second group (domestic group in Japan), there are as many as thirty people, including Japanese marathon record holder Kengo Suzuki and other Japanese elites who entered the Paris Olympics. Yamashita Kazuki fell out of the Japanese group within less than 9 kilometers, making it seem that the “internal competition” in Japan was very intense, with a time of 29 minutes and 45 seconds for the first 10 kilometers..
Kipchoag Group, the first 15 kilometers took 42 minutes and 52 seconds, and the first three 5 kilometers all took around 14 minutes and 20 seconds. The expected completion time is within 201, which looks very impressive..
The domestic groups in Japan have begun to diverge, with a time of 44 minutes and 39 seconds for the first 15 kilometers, lagging behind the Kipchak Group by 1 minute and 47 seconds..
Before reaching the 20 kilometer check-in point, Kipchoag seemed to start falling behind. The 20 kilometer group took 57 minutes and 13 seconds, and Kipchak’s teammates slowed down to give him a run..
Before reaching halfway point, Kipchaug had already fallen far out of the first group and temporarily ranked fifth, and the gap with the first group continued to widen. This may be the earliest collapse in his career. At this time, the first group of men also began to split, leaving only four members in the group..
In the second half of the year, domestic groups in Japan continued to diverge, and Kengo Suzuki remained at the forefront of the group..
It took 1 hour, 11 minutes, and 39 seconds to reach the 25KM check-in point. The hope of breaking the world record is slim, but the chance of breaking the race record is still very high. With the exit of the last pace driver, there are only two remaining players in the first group, namely Uganda’s 24-year-old Kiprongat and Kipronuto who defeated Kipchoag..
30 kilometers per hour, 26 minutes and 28 seconds, under the attack of Kiplangat, the first group has become chaotic, and Kiplato has also been dragged down to third place..
The average speed of the Japanese men’s group for the first 30 kilometers remains within 259, indicating a great chance of reaching the Olympic standard..
In terms of the first group, the three will once again form a group after 31 kilometers, and Kipruto will once again take the lead. Quickly, Kipcorimo fell out of the main group, leaving only Kipcrangat and Kipruto in the group..
Kipchaug seems to be catching up with the second group due to a slow down in the later stages, but he still.
