World marathon record holder Eliud Kipchoge once again showed why he is the best marathoner as he powered to a gold medal at the Tokyo 2020 Olympics on Sunday morning.

By then there was a group of about eight, but Kipchoge seemed to have had enough and decided to break his decisive break.
He went on to win the race in 2:08:38.
