If you hit escape velocity exactly, then you will constantly decelerate toward 0 m/s but never actually reach it... no matter how far from the planet you are, you will always be moving away at least a little bit. (Technically you would hit 0 at infinite distance.) So if you hit escape velocity + 100 m/s, you will slowly decelerate all the time but never go below 100 m/s.
