Eliud Kipchoge

Eliud Kipchoge is widely regarded as the greatest marathon runner of all time. With two Olympic gold medals, the marathon world record, and the historic first sub-two-hour marathon (1:59:40 at the INEOS 1:59 Challenge in Vienna), his philosophy — "No human is limited" — has become a global mantra that transcends sport.

The Kenyan maestro's dominance is unparalleled: he won 15 of his 18 career marathons, including consecutive Olympic golds in Rio and Tokyo, and held the official world record at 2:01:09 set at the 2022 Berlin Marathon. Beyond his athletic achievements, Kipchoge's humility, discipline, and intellectual approach to running have made him one of the most respected athletes in any sport. His training camp in Kaptagat, Kenya, operates on the principle that talent is universal but opportunity is not.
