In Conversation with the Champion: Joshua Cheptegei and Eliud Kipchoge
Joshua Cheptegei: Hey Eliud, it’s truly an honor to be chatting with you today! You’ve been such an inspiration for me and many others in the world of long-distance running. How have you been keeping up with everything?
Eliud Kipchoge: Joshua, the pleasure is mine! I’ve been doing great, staying committed to my training and enjoying every mile. Your recent performances have been phenomenal. How do you keep pushing those boundaries?
Joshua Cheptegei: It’s all about setting new goals and staying hungry for progress. The recent world records have certainly kept me motivated. What about you? What’s your secret for staying on top year after year?
Eliud Kipchoge: Consistency and mental strength, Joshua. When you believe in yourself and stick to disciplined training, the results take care of themselves. Plus, having an incredible team helps a lot. How do you balance your life off the track?
Joshua Cheptegei: That’s spot on. Off the track, family and community are my pillars. Spending time with them keeps me grounded. Speaking of community, how important is it for you to give back and inspire the next generation?
Eliud Kipchoge: Giving back is everything to me. Whether it’s through the Eliud Kipchoge Foundation or just inspiring young athletes, it’s important to leave a legacy that goes beyond my own achievements. I see you’re heavily involved in community initiatives too. What’s driving you there?
Joshua Cheptegei: Absolutely, Eliud. For me, it’s about providing opportunities. Growing up in Uganda, I saw firsthand how talent can go unnoticed due to lack of resources. Helping young athletes get access to training and education is my way of making a difference. Besides running, any new hobbies or interests you’ve picked up?
Eliud Kipchoge: Haha, you’d be surprised! I’ve taken a liking to reading a lot more these days, especially about history and self-improvement. It’s a good balance to the physical grind. What about you? Any hidden talents we should know about?
Joshua Cheptegei: I’ve started dabbling with photography, actually! Capturing moments from my travels and training sessions gives me a creative outlet. And it’s always fun to see the world from a different perspective. Any final words of wisdom for budding athletes out there?
Eliud Kipchoge: Stay dedicated, stay patient, and always believe in yourself. No journey is too long when you want to achieve something great. Keep inspiring, Joshua, and keep breaking those records!
Joshua Cheptegei: Wise words as always, Eliud. Thanks for the chat and for continuing to set the bar high for all of us. Let’s keep pushing our limits and making history!
