Eliud Kipchoge

Imagine running for a super, super long time, like from your house all the way to school and back, many, many times! That's kind of like a marathon. Eliud Kipchoge is a runner from Kenya who is AMAZING at running marathons.

He's won the Olympic marathon not just once, but twice! That means he was the fastest runner in the whole world for that race in 2016 and again in 2020. He's like a superhero with super-speedy legs!

Eliud didn't just wake up being the fastest. When he was a teenager, he was already winning races, like the 5000-meter race. That's still a long way, but much shorter than a marathon!

He even set a world record for young runners. Then, he kept getting better and better. He started running longer distances, and soon he was winning the biggest marathons in the world.

It shows that if you practice and work hard, you can achieve big dreams!

Eliud Kipchoge has done something incredible: he ran a marathon in under two hours! That's faster than anyone had ever done before. It was like running a race that usually takes over two hours, but he did it in less time.
