"Japanese office worker"

That explains the endurance

[quanny]

It's ridiculous how much disrespect this guy gets. He's a world class athlete and deserves the same respect as any of the elite African runners

[willienelsongonzalez]

Considering that Yuki works full time in an office, runs 10-15 marathons per year, has a phenomenal time of usually 2hrs and 10mins, isn’t considered an “elite” by certain standards (even though it is) but it’s obvious that on that particular day, Yuki was and is indeed in a class of his own!

[bbbb-ycgk]

I won’t lie when you tell the story, legit every sentence you end sounds like there’s gonna be something horrible that happens right after. Idrk what type of vibe you bring off I won’t lie. It’s like listening to two personalities at once

[johnanderson]

Stop giving excuses for the elite runners about the damn weather. Yuki won fair and square.

[HansToyHut]

All the Kenyans are sponsored by Nike and train in all weather conditions, have specialized running shoes, gear AND they run in specific formations to decrease drag from the primary runner. You can see them run in a diamond formation at one point in the video.
Yuki worked out of a office. No sponsorship, no custom shoes or gear, no team to protect him from the wind. Yuki is literally all will and passion.

[KierMailan]

Yuki needs a sponsorship asap. Imagine what he could do full time and with the right trainers.

[BlackSeranna]

People like Yuki give me hope for the human race. There will always be one person in a million punching through the ether to get to some goal no one ever knew was there.

[amandapain]

As a kenyan... Yuki deserved that win. It's his win. He earned it. He worked for it. Congratulations to this amazing athlete.

[lavalodong]

This is the Asian parent that actually had to climb mountains to go to school

[Pmz]

Dude never looked back and never celebrated before crossing the line. That is a winning attitude

[Gran_Torino]

Had never heard of him before, when I saw him at Oslo Marathon here in Norway I think in 2017. The course is quite hilly for a street marathon. He absolutely smashed it, I’ve never seen someone run so fast and seemingly effortlessly. And I mean to remember he ran most of the course in front. An incredible athlete. And him being an amateur makes it even more impressive!

[ericrafko]

Watch interviews with Yuki. He had NO IDEA he had won until he saw the tape and race officials we directing him towards it. It makes his win even more impressive. He didn’t have the “I’m going to win the Boston marathon” adrenaline. Dude runs at least one marathon a month. He was just better conditioned for the elements.

[shadowgl]

He endured the weather far better than everybody else, it wasn't in his favor. He was just way tougher than all the other runners.

[jeremyszczepanski]

"This Will NEVER Happen AGAIN In A Marathon" - this guy literally holds the world record for the most sub-2:20 marathons.

[maryarnez]

I ran that race….more brutal than my Ironman race and it took me 5 hours when usually takes 4 hours! For 26.2 I would say it was the toughest race day of my life!! But I NEVER quit
I was almost hypothermic too! Freezing and couldn’t feel a thing and drenched soaking wet the entire time! So happy for our USA girl Desi who won over the Kenyans also!! ❤️

[cgraf]

I'm a good, experienced runner and watched the race live. It goes down as the best race in modern history for me. Yuki was unconscious that day and made moves that were running genius. That foolhardy first mile charge scared the hell out of the shivering race favorites. Then when he pulled away the second and final time on that downhill with a very stiff head wind. That was actually a very smart time to put in a surge. You lean forward and the wind actually supports you while gravity pulls you downhill. Very efficient and effective. Yuki is incredible!

[rmrocha]

Don't blame the rain. It was raining for EVERYBODY.

[solomoon]

I was in the army for 13 years and running incessantly and faster than my muscles were ready to do killed me! This man has such PROWESS In this field. Running is like TORTURE to me. Muscle tends to be a bit different between us all, but he should SO proud of what he accomplished. An amazing feat.

[frankwaugh]

This warmed my heart and made me break out in a MASSIVE smile! Absolutely no chance to win against these great athletes. Surely he has to go down or get passed at some point...but NO! He fights and fights and claws to the end. This is what a real life Rocky looks like. So incredibly inspiring and I can't stop smiling
