An extraordinary athlete, a young life taken too soon 😢💔. At the age of 23 & only his 3rd marathon Kelvin Kiptum broke the world record at the #chicagomarathon. He dreamed to race as a little boy. We will not see how far he could go 🕊️ RIP #KelvinKiptum

"He gave us just a glimmer that it was possible".

History is eternal ♾️
