Here are five training principles I observed, plus a look at Kipchoge’s weekly training schedule. What can the rest of us learn from Kipchoge? To find out, I spent three days in October visiting the NN Running Team camp in Kaptagat, which sits at 7,870 feet elevation, as Kipchoge returned to training following his latest Olympic success. The 36-year-old’s performances have been otherworldly for many years, but his lifestyle has stayed the same-humble, simplistic-while his training involves doing the basics well day after day, year after year. He is a two-time Olympic gold medalist, the marathon world record holder, and, of course, the first man to break the two-hour barrier for the distance. After that he’ll show up and-almost without fail-dominate his rivals on the world stage.īetween 20, Eliud Kipchoge won ten consecutive major marathons.
For four months before every race, at his base in Kaptagat, Kenya, the fastest marathoner in history will churn through slight variations of the same workouts, week in, week out.
