We're sad to report that world marathon record-holder Kelvin Kiptum and his coach have lost their lives in a road accident in Kenya.
Kiptum was 24 years old and ran his world record of 2:00:35 at last year's Chicago Marathon.
A year full of beautiful experiences, great accomplishments as well as challenges. But always with the support from you. I can say I enjoyed 2023 and I’m looking forward to the Olympic year 2024!
I wish all of you the happiest new year with love, peace and new opportunities. Together we run as one.
¡La emoción es total! 👏🏃♀

Alberto González Mindez hace historia en los 10,000 metros planos del atletismo. Con un tiempo de 29:12.24, se queda con la medalla de BRONCE en #Santiago2023 🌟👏🏼.
Tú dedicación y esfuerzo son ejemplares, estamos contigo. ¡Felicidades, Alberto! 🥳
Receiving the Princess of Asturias Award tonight fulfills me with honor, as it’s an acknowledgement for something that I’ve believed in thoroughly throughout my career. To some, running is simply an act of physical movement. But ever since I started running as a young boy in Kapsabet, Kenya, I knew running meant something much greater than that. Running is not just physical movement. Running is a vehicle that has the power to unite us.
We can only achieve greatness if we fully believe that there is nothing holding us back. There are no limits, just what our mind tricks us to believe. So, I urge to you see the world this way. To see the world without limits and to see all that is possible. A running world is a happy world. A running world is a united world.
Muchas gracias.
“Let us make this world a running world. Together.” - @EliudKipchoge visited Beijing and Shanghai for one week to experience the incredible running culture in China.
One of my favorite things about running is that it unites us all. It fades differences and sharing our passion brings us together. It’s great to be back in China where I have the opportunity to meet so many fans who share the same love for running. I get so much energy from meeting all of these wonderful people which fills me with motivation when I start my training for my next race.
Today marks the 4th anniversary of the INEOS 1:59 Challenge in Vienna. On 12 October 2019, we inspired so many people that No Human Is Limited. Running towards the finish line on the famous Prater Hauptallee will be in my mind forever. Together, we showed every human being that there are no limits in this world.
I’m inviting everyone in the world to join us in the INEOS 1:59 Pace Challenge, a great way to test your own limits.
