Eliud Kipchoge, the 38 year old Kenyan former world marathon record holder and Olympic gold medalist has been honoured by his sponsor Nike, the world’s largest athletic shoes supplier.
On October 27, 2023, Nike unveiled the Eliud Kipchoge Track at its European Headquarters in the Netherlands and his statue at its headquarters in Beaverton, Oregon. The track and statue are fitting tributes to Kipchoge’s legacy as one of the greatest marathon runners of all time.
