Quote Marathon world record holder Kelvin Kiptum, the young Kenyan who's taken the long-distance running world by storm in recent years, has died, his family has confirmed. He was only 24. Kiptum and his coach, Rwanda's Gervais Hakizimana, died in a traffic accident on Monday (AEDT). The tragedy occurred on the Eldoret-Kaptagat road in Kenya. After twice clocking two hours and one minute for the marathon, in 2022 and 2023, Kiptum shattered Kenyan icon Eliud Kipchoge's world record by smashing the 2023 Chicago Marathon in 2:00:35. Kipchoge's world record was 2:01:09. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
