Now that he has broken 2, the next question is can he repeat the magic in an open completion?[:p][laugh][laugh]

Who will be the next one to try, not breaking 2, but breaking 1:59:40??? [:p][laugh][laugh]

Remember, NO HUMAN IS LIMITED!!! ^_^

Only thing is that this record will not be used ( no pakai one) anywhere as it’s privately conducted and also as what the compere said 1) there have to be numbers in terms of runners 2) athletes must pick up drinks themselves .... not served ..... now he has to do the same for an officially sanctioned marathon ...... anyways they also do dope tests; but nevertheless it’s a great achievement

I think his next race will likely be Berlin again, and this time he properly will go under 2:01...[laugh][laugh][laugh]

Actually watching the documentary filming, can see he spends a lot of time on core training other than running. His upper body motion is close to zero when he's running.

Should take advantage of his legendary status while he is alive. Make a dramatize movie. How from young he out ran lions and cheetah. At races,  his runner's high comes in the form of being chased by a lion demon..😁 

Don't wait until die liao then make movie, like armstong's 'First man' . Cannot cash in..

Think he just wants to be at his home, at camp, train and run. Super zen.

Nobody know if he has reached his peak. But from the way he finished, looks like not yet to me.

So in his mind he may still be thinking of setting new records and doing new events. 

But you are very right, now its a good time to really take advantage of his status to cash in, mayb his movie may out sell the the avengers end game....:a-good::a-good::a-good:

Starts his own line of running shoes with Nike like what MJ did.  Start a training school, give talks ard the world on distance running. All these won't work anymore after his peak.. [laugh][laugh][laugh]

If you happen to catch the press conference after the run, mayb can see he quite funny.

Dont know is it his lack of command of English or he is sarcastic, mostly short answers, some only one word, and never give a direct answer..[laugh][laugh][laugh]

I think he has his own aims. 
The documentary, the manager mentioned they wanted him to do this attempt after Tokyo olympics. But he said no, he wants to do this in 2019

He looks most happy when he enters his farm. And he look set to receive another cow for his ineos achievement. He see himself as farmer who runs.

Probably gonna based in Kenya to mentor young ones with his friend Patrick when he retires.

By nature he is shy and quiet type so not surprising what happened at the press conference. His criteria for wife? One who is not talkative.😄

Awesome achievement.

And didn't even need to poke holes on his singlet.

no need to poke, his singlet  already has holes. 

For his speed, he needs all the cooling he can get even though it's 9 degree C then.

42km under 2 hours meaning 21km per hour,  if you ride a 10km/h PMD for an hour, you have already upfront losing 11km behind them. How to catch up ? 

I will be walking on most of the 42km. A PMD is better than walking. 10km/h is the sgp speed limit. It's ok if you dont get it.
