In less than 24 hours, Kenya’s most daring son, Eliud Kipchoge, will embark on a body-punishing quest in Vienna, Austria. He aims to run 42km in a mind-blowing 1 hour and 59 minutes that will leave the world on edge for the duration of the spectacle.
The arena is the storeyed Austria’s Vienna Park, The Prater, Hauptalee not far from where yet another Kenyan Henry Rono blazed the trail in setting 10,000 World record at 27:22:05 on June11, 1978.
