Dangle your watch and then suddenly move your hand sideways. The watch kicks back! No "butt kick", just inertia. I didn't see Kipchoge extending his rear leg any more than you did, Sage, so you have no restriction due to tight hip flexors any more than Kipchoge. The speed of contraction of those flexors depends on desired speed or acceleration. Without high speed distance training, those muscles will not keep the pace for very long. I suspect that we don't sufficiently endurance train our hip flexors, and spend an inordinate amount of time training our calves.

If you watch some elite female runners, there can be a big difference between athletes running at the same pace, some athletes have much higher back kick than others. A higher back kick means stronger calves and shorter ground contact time. The way to improve it is to do lots of fast speedwork and drills, there is no magic trick to change your form.

I think the main difference is nobody has had a perfect V-formation of rotating pacers in front of them for a whole 42km at that pace. The drafting effect is probably the biggest difference. Then maybe saving 5-10 seconds in savings getting fluids/gels handed off on a bike (vs grabbing them off a table every 5km). The weather and course were also very nice. Everything had to come together perfectly (including Kipchoge's top peaked fitness and mental toughness most importantly) for this to happen.

The main thing I notice from Kipchoge is his arms which he doesn't really move much and keeps close to his body. I'm assuming that conserves energy to a degree and his gait is simple and efficient. There's hardly any excess movement in his overall gait. When you see sprinters they have tremendous arm movement since that helps generate speed quickly but you don't want that for long distances. The guy's body was made for long distance though. He's rail thin with long strides.

Some of those gains to beat 2 hours in competition will involve getting more aero, the next best thing to drafting behind pacers. Same tech cyclists have used, especially for time trials. Kipchoge is already pretty aero, including keeping the arms close, at heart level, hands crossing the sternum. Other analysts have noted this high, close arm position is common to elite African runners, yet less common among other competitors. Over distance it appears to offer some aero advantage with less energy expenditure flapping the arms outside the boundaries of the torso. He keeps his hair cropped closely. The sleeves may help a bit. A form fitting top and shorts, no flapping fabric, can help over distance. Ditto shoes without unnecessary protrusions, laces, decorations. The fabric itself can be made more aero, particularly the forward facing fabric. Cycling apparel has this down to a science, tested in wind tunnels, including adjusting body positions. Even the positions of the hands and fingers on the aero bars matters. Depends on the rules of the governing organizations for competitive running, but it's likely the first runner to break 2 hours in standard competition will have a shaved head, jersey with sleeves and fabric designed for maximum aero effect, possibly even gloves, and shoes with smooth external surface, a shoe cover or tape over laces and protruding surfaces along the sides.

The high buttkick is an efficency factor related somewhat to speed itselfs, but more likely the speed of the stride and the movement, and cadence. The higher and closer the feet comes to the butt, the less distance that feet has to travel till a high knee position, meaning less energy consumed, due to shorter pendulum length. The actual butt-kick is never forced, by activating hams and glutes, those are just stabilisers in this case and outside of little eccentric contraction they are very lightly engaged muscles. Lightly engaged, I mean in the context of other propulsive muscles and in the context of pace. Probably the stress considered light in case of a 2:00 - 2:15 marathoner would tear off a 3h marathoner's posterior chain !!! We never really see hamstring cramps, inner thigh cramps, but not even calf cramps in case of these efficient forefoot runners, bending forward from the ankle. On the contrary we can see a lot of injuries and once in a lifetime performances from other non efficient runners muscling themselves through a single 2:06 pace. Not talking about PEDs and nose breathing, the mental fortitude of Kipchoge is enormous. Trusting his body and sticking to the excellent form, no matter what is a true 6th sense or 6th ability. What I mean that probably others would be able to run as fast as him, but never come back afterwards, ever because of this efficiency issue. Thanks for the Vid Sage, great stuff !!!

However as physiology goes, to be able to maximise oxygen uptake you must breathe a certain amount of air through the nose to augment nox in the lungs to open up the alveolis. That is for sure though that Africans with their big and rigid nostrils are capable of running at lower breathing rates and lower heart rates.

One thing is shoes like vaporflys really help with a backkick and long stride. I went into cross country season thinking I'll try this backick thing, but it doesn't work that way. Its a lot harder to bounce off the ground with spikes compared to vaporflys. In cross country the key is to have a good cadence and stay efficient, but in track longer stride and higher backkick is a thing when you want to cover more distance with each stride especially in the mile.

I think Kipchoge is the greatest marathoner of all time because he has won London 4 times, won Berlin, won Olympic Gold and has the marathon world record at 2:01:39. Of course this 1:59 project adds to that body of work as well!. He's done so many impressive things already and won head to head against the best. Now people generally get quite upset when I say this (I've gotten all sorts of hate for tweeting this and posting this on facebook), but I actually think his official world record of 2:01:39 is an equally impressive performance to the 1:59:40 (given the conditions and variables and considering the quantitative data ). That being said, I think maybe Bekele could have also run 1:59 at INEOS if he was in the race (since he "soloed" 2:01:41 in Berlin in much worse conditions). Still, Kipchoge has proven over and over that he is the best....the greatest marathoner of all time.

the only difference between amateurs and professional is professionals have long landing feet unlike quick small feet. Meaning they maximise their stride. for example: i finish 10 runs in 19 minutes with decent effort meaning i took 115 seconds to complete a 400 meter track. that means i would take 3.5 meters per second. normally that is max 4 steps per second( which i feel quite fast) equates to 2.87 feet per step! which equates to taking 2.87*60=172 steps per minute or 3*60=180 steps per minute. BOTTOM LINE: that means i am doing basically same steps as the world class runners( i have tested it for 3 hours non stop where timing stretched to 140 seconds per 400 meters track). --- but unlike average runners in the same number of steps he covers lot of distance: more like 1.2 meters per step so 185*1.35 meters=90 seconds per 400 meters round is 3 hours run for professional runners. 190*1.45 meters=300 meters equates to 80 seconds per 400 meters or 200 seconds per km! 3.2 minutes per km*42=135 minutes. the carbon plate shoes add some zing. otherwise there is no way he can run that fast: normal world record speed is 2 hours 10 minutes on flat and will get to 2.15 to 2.20 ish on a round track!

While I do understand the significant advantages provided in Eliud's historic day, he did finish with time in hand and looked rather comfortable in doing it; not to mention his WR marathon time is within 98 seconds already. I also realize the margins by which records are broken get smaller and smaller but it still seems like Eliud's performances have opened the door to that discussion imo. Probably just even more ignorant than I gave myself credit for but what are your thoughts about sub 2 being accomplished in a marathon major?

I still don't think we'll see the Official Marathon World Record go sub 2:00 within the next 5+ years. If an athlete is going to do it, it would be Kipchoge, Bekele or Kimetto though! The main issue is that it is simply impossible (right now) to have a perfect Pacer -V-formation for the entire 42km at that pace in a real race (i.e. pacers can't keep up that long and would have to drop out!). The Air Resistance savings factor was huge at INSEOS 159 (compared to an actual marathon race with competitors who will not let you draft behind them!).

I know we're all built differently, but so are those elites, and when you look at them all in this event, or the other sub 2 attempt a while back, they all look remarkably similar. The cadence and lower body stuff is very helpful, but it would be great for someone to figure out and explain how these guys use their upper bodies (again, all remarkably similar). Recreational runners are even worse at approximating what efficient runners do from the waist up than they are at getting cadence and foot strike right. I think it might be a key missing part of the puzzle.

How might walking inform our approach to running? I know I'm annoying, but I'm in the midst of trying to break out of 8 min pace in preparation for a marathon and I find it fascinating thinking about these things.

DRP Blue Skys yes they help for sure. Him being born and brought up in a high altitude certainly has benefits to ones physiology. However, you still need to train like hell to condition your body to be able to run at such a pace for extended periods. Also the average person doesn’t have the mental toughness to push yourself to keep going. He’s a true warrior.

@Vo2maxProductions

when I trained with Brian Sell at Hansons he ran up to 170 miles I week.....he ran 2:10 and made the Olympics and i think that's what he needed to meet that goal. The goal is to run the "least amount of miles to accomplish what time you want in the marathon"...and it is a fine line because of risks of injury and overtraining. I've run up to 150 miles a week personally and it was too much (I ran slower!). When I ran my marathon PR I ran about 120 miles a week. So more is not always better. I'm pretty sure all world class marathoners do at least 80-100 miles a week though....and most would at least be between 110-150...at least for 4-10 weeks before their race. The other variable of course is the quality speed sessions you are doing. Kipchoge has to do sessions like 15 x 1km in 2:50-2:40 at altitude on a dirt track and other long hard efforts during these high mileage weeks!

Baron yes, it would. it depends on height =step length and speed. On slow motion there is no need to make 180-190 cadence to save energy as it’s already economical with low speed. But when you run with quite high speed and you wanna keep it for a long time then you’d better make 180-190 cadence to save energy and get good impact. The same with step length. It depends on height. The taller you r the more length of step you have. In case of slow run you don’t need to cut steps shorter but with high speed you would save energy with 180-190 cadence

I think long run vs. sprint cadence varies a lot even individually as higher speed = higher cadence. Bolt must have high cadence as his maximal speed +12m per seconds.. ..240 cadence would be equal with impossible 10feet stride :-) about 260 cadence sounds realistic with simple and logical math.

I just don’t see how “kick back” or powering off the ground has anything logical to do with how high your heel comes up to your butt. Your foot goes straight into the ground, there’s zero momentum bringing your heel up. How high or powerful your knee drive is, will determine how high the heel clears the knee on the turn around. The weaker your knee drive is the lower your heel/foot will be.

@@AdiPrimandaGinting you don't get my point. I was referring to the subject of genetics which Sage mentioned. I didn't mention elites, you mistakenly inferred that. My point is, people typically think of genetics influencing say their muscle blend or their biomechanics (short or long limbed for example) or their energy system. But perhaps more significant is how genetics determines your body's *response* to training. Take two people, the low responder has to work a lot harder to get the same result than the, perhaps elite, high responder.
