    How tragic Kelvin Kiptum went from having to borrow shoes to London Marathon record just a YEAR after first 26-mile race

    KELVIN Kiptum, running legend, made incredible progress in his record-breaking athletics career before he died tragically aged just 24.Kiptum, who began running competitively in 2018, ran his first race in borrowed running shoes when he couldn’t afford to buy his own.

    But just a few years later he had set an incredible Marathon record no one else has ever been able to achieve.
    Kiptum competed in his first Marathon in Valencia, in 2022.
    He became only the third man ever to break a record of two hours and two minutes, crossing the line in two hours and one minute, 53 seconds.
    Just a year later he won the London Marathon in April after two hours, one minute and 25 seconds.

    And that October in the Chicago Marathon he finished in a truly incredible two hours and 35 seconds – becoming the only person to ever hit it in under two hours and one minute.
    He once told BBC Sport Africa: “It has been a long journey for me through my career.
    “I have been trying so hard to pursue this dream to run a world record.
    “It has come true and I am really happy. My life has now changed.”

    Early in his career, Kiptum didn’t have the money to travel to track sessions, and had to start training on the road.
    Most long distance runners train first during track sessions and work up to the road.
    He said in an interview: “My training place is far from a track, so I started training with road-running guys – and that’s how I got into marathon.”
    Kiptum also had to work hard to convince his family it was a career worth pursuing, before he ended up breaking international records.
    The athlete began running with a half-marathon at age 13, but it would be years before he started working with his coach in 2020 and entered the international stage.
    Horror car crash
    Tragically just days ago the athlete was involved in a horror car crash in Kenya with his coach, Garvais Hakizimana.
    Both men were killed, just days after Kiptum’s world-breaking records were ratified by World Athletics.
    And the incredible runner was in the midst of training for the Rotterdam Marathon on April 14.
    He had also been picked by Kenya to represent the country in this summer’s 2024 Olympics in Paris.
    Kenya’s former prime minister Raila Odinga confirmed Kiptum had died on X, writing: “Devastating news as we mourn the loss of a remarkable individual, Kelvin Kiptum, World Record holder and Kenyan athletics icon.
    “Together with his coach, they tragically passed on in an accident tonight.
    “My deepest condolences to his loved ones, friends, and the entire athletics fraternity.
    “Our nation grieves the profound loss of a true hero.”
    London Marathon organisers added: “We are shocked and deeply saddened to hear the terrible news of the death of marathon world record holder Kelvin Kiptum and his coach, Gervais Hakizimana.
    “The thoughts of everyone at the TCS London Marathon are with Kelvin’s and Gervais’ family and friends.”
    World Athletics president Seb Coe said: “On behalf of all World Athletics we send our deepest condolences to their families, friends, teammates and the Kenyan nation.
    “It was only earlier this week in Chicago, the place where Kelvin set his extraordinary marathon World Record, that I was able to officially ratify his historic time.
    “An incredible athlete leaving an incredible legacy, we will miss him dearly.”
    Another passenger, a woman named as Sharon Kosgey, reportedly survived the crash and is in hospital with serious injuries.
    Local police said the accident happened on Sunday evening after Kiptum lost control of the car and veered off the road before landing in a ditch.
    Both men died instantly.
    Humble beginnings
    Kiptum’s coach Hakizimana also told the BBC about his amazing rise to success.
    He said: “I knew him when he was a little boy, herding livestock barefooted.
    “It was in 2009, I was training near his father’s farm, he’d come kicking at my heels and I would chase him away.
    “Now, I am grateful to him for his achievement.”
    Kiptum apparently needed lots of gentle coaching to come around to the idea of running a marathon – as he once feared it would be too difficult.
    His coach said: “He had some fear and preferred the shorter half-marathon until 2022 when he finally agreed to a marathon.”
    The Kenyan track star also had to convince his family about the career path he was considering – they wanted him to go to university.
    Kiptum opened up about his relationship with his dad in an interview and said: “He wanted me to study to pursue my diploma to be an electrician but I was saying that I needed to be an athlete – I had that passion.

    “That period was very hard for me because I trained for four years, yet there were no successes and they were disappointed in me. But I kept on pushing.”
    But over the years his father warmed to the idea and ended up helping his son to keep up with training.

    Kerr ran a time of eight minutes and 0.67 seconds.
    It was just under three seconds quicker than four-time Olympic gold medallist Farah’s world record of 8:03.40, which he set nine years ago.
    Kerr’s preparation for the race was unusual as he was spotted on the New York subway just hours before hitting the track.
    A snap of the 26-year-old sat on the train went viral, with fans saying: “Taking the subway to work like the rest of us. Man of the people.”

    Another added: “Hope he went back in a stretch limousine after that brilliant performance.”
    A third commented: “What a legend.”
    Kerr was thrilled with his world record, saying: “I had to roll with the punches at the start of my career – pretty good but not world-class.
    “And then to be world-class and now world champion… I’m having fun with it, creating big goals to get myself out the door and prove I’m not all talk.”

    Kerr’s record is his latest achievement after winning gold in the 1500m at the World Championships last summer.
    He will be hoping to continue his success in the Paris Olympics later this year after earning a bronze in Tokyo in 2021.

    Kiptum won the London Marathon in April last year and broke the course record, crossing the line in two hours one minute and 25 seconds.
    Just months later he smashed the world marathon record in Chicago, completing the 26 mile race in just two hours and 35 seconds.
    International track federation World Athletics had only ratified his records last week.
    Kenya’s former prime minister Raila Odinga confirmed Kiptum had died on X, writing: “Devastating news as we mourn the loss of a remarkable individual, Kelvin Kiptum, World Record holder and Kenyan athletics icon.
    “Together with his coach, they tragically passed on in an accident tonight.”
    “My deepest condolences to his loved ones, friends, and the entire athletics fraternity.
    How Kelvin Kiptum went from borrowing shoes to winning London MarathonKelvin Kiptum was renowned for being the only person in history to run the marathon in under two hours and one minute.
    But the Kenyan, 24, had to rise from the depths of poverty prior to his remarkable success.
    When he lined up for his first major local competition in 2018, Kiptum did so wearing borrowed running shoes because he could not afford a pair of his own.
    Kiptum began his career on the road, breaking away from the past tradition of athletes starting on the track before switching to longer distances.
    But that wasn’t out of choice.
    Kiptum claims he made the decision purely because of a lack of resources.
    “I had no money to travel to track sessions,” he explained to BBC Sport Africa.
    “My training place is far from a track, so I started training with road-running guys – and that’s how I got into marathon.”

    “Our nation grieves the profound loss of a true hero.”
    The crash happened on a road in Western Kenya – a high-altitude area commonly used as a training base for long-distance athletes.
    Most read in Athletics
    Kiptum described his astonishing rise to success in an interview with the BBC last year.
    He ran his first major local competition in borrowed shoes, as he couldn’t afford a pair himself.
    Kiptum said: “It has been a long journey for me through my career.
    “I have been trying so hard to pursue this dream to run a world record.
    “It has come true and I am really happy. My life has now changed.”
    His coach Hakizimana – who also died in the smash – told of how he knew Kiptum from a young boy in the same interview.
    He said: “I knew him when he was a little boy, herding livestock barefooted.
    “It was in 2009, I was training near his father’s farm, he’d come kicking at my heels and I would chase him away.
    “Now, I am grateful to him for his achievement.”
    London Marathon organisers said: “We are shocked and deeply saddened to hear the terrible news of the death of marathon world record holder Kelvin Kiptum and his coach, Gervais Hakizimana.
    “The thoughts of everyone at the TCS London Marathon are with Kelvin’s and Gervais’ family and friends.”

    “It was only earlier this week in Chicago, the place where Kelvin set his extraordinary marathon World Record, that I was able to officially ratify his historic time.
    “An incredible athlete leaving an incredible legacy, we will miss him dearly.”
    Local reports state that a second passenger, a lady identified as Sharon Kosgey, was in the car at the time of the crash.
    She survived the impact but with serious injuries, and was rushed to Racecourse Hospital for medical attention.
    The bodies of Kiptum and Hakiziman were taken to the hospital’s mortuary.
    Elgeyo Marakwet Police Commander Petr Mulinge confirmed the accident took place at approximately 11pm (8pm GMT) on Sunday.
    According to Mulinge, Kiptum had lost control of the vehicle, veering off the road and landing in a ditch about 60 metres away before colliding with a tree.
    He added that Kiptum and Hakizimana “died on the spot”.
    READ MORE SUN STORIES
    Kiptum was currently training to run just under two hours at the Rotterdam Marathon on April 14.
    He had also been selected by Kenya for this summer’s 2024 Olympics in Paris.
    Why it took Kiptum 23 YEARS to agree to run a marathonKiptum may have been a world record holder and champion but it took a lot of convincing to get him to run in the first place.
    According to his coach Garvais Hakizimana – who died alongside him this week – Kiptum needed time to warm up to the idea of running a marathon.
    The Kenyan initially feared that it might be too tough.
    “He had some fear and preferred the shorter half-marathon until 2022 when he finally agreed to a marathon,” Hakizimana told BBC Sport Africa.
    Fast forward a few years and Kiptum would have 42km triumphs in Valencia, London and Chicago.
    But there were also other complications getting in the way of Kiptum fulfilling his potential.
    Kiptum had to convince his family that he could make it in athletics.
    His father had been adamant that he should go to college instead.
    “He wanted me to study to pursue my diploma to be an electrician but I was saying that I needed to be an athlete – I had that passion,” Kiptum recalled.
    “That period was very hard for me because I trained for four years, yet there were no successes and they were disappointed in me. But I kept on pushing.”
    Eventually his father came around, even occasionally helping him get to early morning training on time.

    He fired back with a brutal offer of his own, saying: “Real talk, jokes aside, Jake Paul is an utter f*****g joke.
    “You box small retired old MMA fighters and you sell sugar water to kids. If it were legal I’d take your f****** life with a smile on my face. Is there any place on this earth I can take this man’s life and walk?
    “Actually Jake I’ll make you a better deal because money can’t buy happiness and you have plenty of it and you’re still a c***.

    I’m a former boxing world champion… Tyson Fury is past it and we might NEVER see Gypsy King fight again

    The Gypsy King was set for an undisputed title showdown against Usyk on February 17 in Saudi Arabia.
    However, the heavyweight bout was called off after the undefeated Mancunian suffered a horror cut during a sparring session.
    A new date has been announced with the two rivals now set to square off on May 18 in Riyadh.
    If either fighter pulls out of the fight on that date, they will be fined a massive £10million.

    But former WBA super-middleweight champion Groves doubts even that will guarantee Fury, 35, will step into the ring.
    Groves told IFL TV: “There are all these stories Fury’s had a terrible camp, he’s been dropped in camp, he’s past it, the [Francis] Ngannou fight shows where he’s at.
    “Well, what if he’s had a great camp, he’s high flying, he’s going to show the world what he’s capable of and beat this Ukrainian guy to get the belts, then he gets cut.
    “That’s going to be even harder to get over mentally and emotionally than having a stinker of a camp and trying to turn it round, so we might never see Fury fight again, who knows.”

    Fury, though, insists he has still got a lot left in the tank and is not planning to retire any time soon.
    In fact, the British superstar is eyeing two fights with Usyk, a dream match with Anthony Joshua and a rematch with UFC legend Francis Ngannou.

    Fury said: “I’m hearing talk of people saying that I should retire or I’m gonna retire soon, or whatever. I ain’t retiring anywhere.
    “I’ve got two fights with Usyk, for the undisputed twice. Then I’m gonna fight AJ at least once.
    “Maybe twice if there’s a rematch, if he wants one after the first battering I give him. And then I’m gonna fight Ngannou again.
    “And that’s just to start. So there’s five little fights for you to whet your appetite with.
    “I ain’t going nowhere. Nowhere. I’m 35-year-old in the prime of my life.” More
