How Kipchoge responded to the WORST race in his career

You can’t always control your circumstances, but you can choose how you respond to them.
-
During the Paris Olympics in 2024, Eliud Kipchoge, one of the greatest marathon runners ever, dropped out and did not finish the marathon.

What did he do after the worst race in his career?

He did not throw a tantrum.

Instead, he showed his gratitude to his fans.

He even gave his shoes and clothes as he exited the course.

What makes him an incredible role model is not just what he achieved in the history of running, but how he responds to adversity.

Did he quit because he was injured or just because he was going to lose badly. Big difference.

Couldn’t you explain why he dropped out, it would’ve been helpful

[vrunner]

He knew he would it make it at least I knew. He should have run with the crowd as a present to them

One of the greatest marathon runners of all time???? No body is even remotely close to him. He is the best ever by a long way.

Abebe Bikila is The Best marathon runner of all time.
