Eliud Kipchoge won his first World Championships in 2003.
Since then, he has raced around the world in track, cross country, and most recently, Eliud has moved to the roads. KIpchoge took his time building up to the marathon. He was not an overnight success at the marathon, at least, not to his standards.
Then, in October 2014, he won the Chicago Marathon with such style and flourish that the world saw his potential. In April 2015, in his epic battle with Wilson Kipsang and Dennis Kimetto, Eliud KIpchoge won London and spoke to the media on importance of taking your time moving up through the sport. Kipchoge spoke of cross country and track as building blocks for the marathoner.
And now, on September 27, 2015, Eliud Kipchoge will race at BMW Berlin for the second time. In 2013, he did not win. This year, KIpchoge has a mission: a win, and to run, very, very fast.

That will tell you if he has accomplished his goal.
