Eliud Kipchoge Breaks Two-Hour Marathon Barrier
This kind of comment really depresses me. Someone achieves something absolutely amazing and some random commenter on the net will be happy to belittle it in every way that they can think of.

Don't be depressed. Just reread the comment, until you realize that there is really no reason to construct it like this.

I did and I read your other comments in this thread as well, all but one seem to be unnecessarily negative about this man's achievement.

Well, I called it impressive. It is just that I don't think it is marathon, in the same way as a soccer match is not.
