Kipchoge addressed the press and thanked those who helped him achieve his goal saying

I am feeling good. It has taken 65 years for a human to make history in sport. After Roger Bannister [running a sub four-minute mile in 1954] it took another 65 years … I’m happy to be the man to run under two hours. No human is limited, and I’m expecting more people to do it after today,' he said.

Adding,

The 41 pacemakers are among the best athletes in the whole world … to all of them I want to say thank you, thank you for doing the job. We made history together.

To have someone doing something as monumental as this, it’s such a boost for all the athletes over there in Kenya. It’s showing that the impossible is do-able
