Kenyan Eliud Kipchoge, perhaps the greatest runner in history, has declared he will run the Sydney Marathon in August in a huge boon to the event’s standing.
The 40-year-old maestro, back-to-back Olympic marathon champion in 2016 and 2020 and the only runner ever to record an unofficial sub two-hour time in the event, says he’s excited to be competing in the first year that the Sydney race has been designated a World Marathon Major.
