When Speed Meets Endurance: Patrick Makau Chats with Eliud Kipchoge

Patrick Makau: Hey Eliud, always a pleasure to catch up with you! Got any interesting training stories to share? You know, to spice up our running diaries?

Eliud Kipchoge: Patrick, my friend, it’s always great to chat! I actually have a funny one: Just last week, I was testing out some new shoes and ended up outrunning my pacer! What about you? Any recent adventures?

Patrick Makau: (laughs) Now that’s classic Eliud! For me, the other day I decided to run during a heavy downpour. It was like nature’s own obstacle course! But hey, it was refreshing—talk about being one with the elements, right?

Eliud Kipchoge: Absolutely! Rain runs can be quite the thrill. Speaking of thrills, remember when you broke the marathon world record in Berlin? What was running through your mind at that moment?

Patrick Makau: Oh man, Berlin 2011. That was surreal! Honestly, I kept thinking about the thousands of kilometers I’d trained and just how much I wanted to break that record. It was more mental than physical—a battle against doubt.

Eliud Kipchoge: Mental strength is everything in our sport. A strong mind can carry a tired body through the longest miles. How do you stay motivated after achieving such milestones?

Patrick Makau: For me, it’s always about the next goal. Running isn’t just about records; it’s about challenging myself and inspiring others. What keeps you pushing the limits, Eliud?

Eliud Kipchoge: It’s the pursuit of excellence and the belief that no human is limited. I’m driven by the idea that we can always improve and inspire the next generation of runners. Speaking of which, what’s some advice you’d give to young aspiring marathoners?

Patrick Makau: Stay disciplined, be patient, and listen to your body. Consistency is key. And always remember to enjoy the journey—every run, every race, there’s a lesson to be learned. What about you, any golden nuggets of wisdom?

Eliud Kipchoge: I’d say, never underestimate the power of teamwork and community. Surround yourself with positive influences and never stop learning. Success is a collective effort as much as it is individual.

Patrick Makau: Couldn’t agree more. Well, Eliud, it’s been fantastic catching up. Let’s plan a run together soon, maybe even brave another downpour!

Eliud Kipchoge: (laughs) Count me in! Stay strong, Patrick, and keep inspiring!

Patrick Makau: You too, Eliud. Keep breaking those barriers!
