![]() ![]() We talk about success and why he doesn’t believe in it – which, I think, is remarkable for a man who has achieved so much of it. We talk about reflection and why, in this tech heavy world, Eliud still keeps a handwritten training journal. We cover many different topics in this conversation. ![]() He has a calmness, a humility and a complete lack of ego, which I and millions around the world, find ourselves drawn to. One of the main reasons I wanted to talk to Eliud was not because of his running ability, but because I have always been fascinated by the energy that he radiates. Whether you are a runner or not, I think you are going to find Eliud’s insights highly relevant and applicable in your own life. But the conversation we had for this podcast is about so much more than running. This conversation took place in London on the weekend of the 2022 London Marathon, exactly seven days after he had once again broken the official marathon world record in Berlin. Although this was not recognised as an official world record because it was not in an open competition, it was an incredible achievement for humanity. And of course, he’s the only athlete to have ever run a marathon in under two-hours, which he did back in 2019 in Vienna as part of the 1:59 challenge. Eliud Kipchoge is a Kenyan athlete who is widely regarded as the greatest marathon runner of all time – he has won two successive Olympic marathons and 10 major titles. ![]() This week’s guest is someone who I have been trying to set up a face to face conversation with for around 2 years.
