In several interviews, Kipchoge has compared his attempt to beat two hours to the effort that goes into putting a man on the moon. On the Hauptallee, a stretch of tree-bordered road that runs through Prater park, where the course was set, teammates lifted Kipchoge up on their shoulders, draping a Kenyan flag around his shoulders. According to Citizen Digital, a Kenyan news organization, Kipchoge will have a street named after him in Eldoret when he returns. "Today we went to the Moon and came back to earth! I am at a loss for words for all the support I have received from all over the world," Kipchoge tweeted.Ī video posted on Twitter by the National Olympic Committee for Kenya showed the crowd in Eldoret, Kenya – Kipchoge's hometown – cheering and jumping as his record time was announced.
