Eliud Kipchoge once again demonstrated why he is considered the greatest marathon runner of all time, clocking the second fastest marathon time in history at the Berlin Marathon.

The Race

Kipchoge ran the 26.2-mile course in 2:01:39, just seconds off his own world record set at the same course in 2018.

What Makes Kipchoge Special

Beyond his physical gifts, Kipchoge is renowned for his mental fortitude and his philosophical approach to running. He trains with a group of athletes in Kaptagat, Kenya, living a simple, disciplined life focused entirely on his craft.
