Eliud Kipchoge is the greatest marathoner of all time. He is the marathon world record holder and two times Olympic gold medalist. Recently I had two conversations with Eliud, one recorded Zoom and I got an opportunity to join my friend Lewis for a coffee with Eliud in Eugene, OR. He has been a huge inspiration to me, in training, racing and daily life.

We discuss Eliud’s strategies for success, running advice for non elite runners and his new Universal Pictures movie, "The Last Milestone”. This is an incredible film that documents his journey of successfully attempting to break the 2 hour marathon mark and leave his place in history.
