Bringing together some of the greatest minds and talent in sport allows us to take on great sporting challenges, enabling extraordinary athletes to achieve extraordinary things. We love a challenge Which is why we decided to take on one of the last remaining barriers in modern athletics, breaking the two-hour barrier in the marathon. Attempted by others, conquered by INEOS. Bringing together top talent from across the INEOS sporting family, and driven by grit, determination and rigour, the INEOS 1:59 Challenge supported Eliud Kipchoge to break the two-hour barrier in a time of 1:59.40.2. Through innovation and advancement in technology and human performance the impossible was achieved.
