For our first #TBT Activities Series, we share this great SportAccord memory with Wilson Kipketer, former 800m World Record holder & 3-time World Champion who took us for a fun morning #run👟 and educated young people about the long-term benefits of #PhysicalActivity.
The message for the young generations from the former World Record Holder in 800m @kipketer8: be yourself, great things will arrive.

“It’s an honour sharing the stage with Wilson.”
When @kipketer8 set the meeting record in Stockholm in 1997 – a then world record 1:41.73 – @DonavanBrazier was just 83 days old.

"The time comes for everyone: when you have to move on and accept you’re not what you once were. For most athletes, it's when they retire. But for me, it happened when I was at my peak."

"Before I even got the results, I faded out – unconscious. It turned out I had malaria. From that point on, my body would never quite work the same way again."
