Eliud Kipchoge lands in Germany in style ahead of the Berlin Marathon

The Berlin course remains one of his favorite since he has set two world records there.

Four-time Berlin Marathon champion Eliud Kipchoge has landed in Germany in style for the Berlin Marathon on Sunday, September 24.

Kipchoge has been preparing for the marathon since his unsatisfactory exit from the Boston Marathon.

The four-time London Marathon champion finished sixth at the Boston Marathon due to a problem with his left leg but has since addressed that and will be raring to go in the streets of Berlin.

The Berlin course remains one of his favorite since he has set two world records there. He set the first world record during the 2018 edition where he clocked 2:01:39 to win the race.

He then lowered his time during the 2022 edition, clocking 2:01:09 to cross the finish line. Another record might be in the offing as he seeks to bounce back from the Boston Marathon disappointment.

The 38-year-old also disclosed that he loves racing in the streets of Berlin because of the real fans who motivate him to always do better.

In Berlin, he will enjoy the company of the 2022 London Marathon champion Amos Kipruto who finished second behind him during the 2022 Tokyo Marathon.

Jonathan Maiyo, Eliud Kiptanui, Ronald Korir, and Philemon Kiplimo have also confirmed participation. Enock Onchari, Mark Korir, and Josphat Boit will also be in action.
