Info: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eliud_Kipchoge
In 2019 Eliud Kipchoge became the first human to run a marathon distance in under two hours, achieving 1:59:40.2 during a highly modified event. Due to the presence of pacemaker runners, delivery of hydration by bicycle, and the lack of open competition, it is not considered an official marathon record.

In Oct 2023 Kelvin Kiptum became the only human to ever break two hours and one minute (2:01:00) in an official marathon competition. He is the current world record holder.
