Three-time Olympic champion and multiple world titleholder Faith Kipyegon is set to embrace a new frontier as she prepares for her highly anticipated 10km road debut at the Monaco Run Gramaglia in Monte Carlo.

Renowned globally as the greatest women’s 1500m runner of her generation, Kipyegon has built a legacy defined by dominance, discipline, and record-breaking brilliance. From Olympic gold medals to commanding performances on the world stage, she has mastered the track with tactical precision and unmatched finishing speed. Now, she steps away from the oval and onto the open roads for a fresh and exciting challenge.

The race will start at 9:00 AM local time along the breathtaking Mediterranean coastline, offering both a picturesque setting and a competitive field.

This debut signals more than just participation in a new event. It reflects her fearless mindset and her constant desire to evolve. Every great champion seeks new mountains to climb, and Monaco presents the perfect stage for another defining moment.

As fans across Kenya and the world tune in, anticipation is high. Will the queen of the 1500m extend her reign onto the roads? One thing is certain — whenever Faith Kipyegon steps onto a start line, history is never far behind.

The road now calls, and the legend answers.
