At 41, when the natural history of athletics dictates the Winter Barracks,\u00a0<\/span>Eliud Kipchoge<\/span><\/b>\u00a0has broken the molds of sporting logic again.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>

The largest corridor of all time in the distance of 42,195 kilometers has officially inaugurated its most universal project this May: the\u00a0<\/span>\u00abWorld Tour\u00bb<\/span><\/b>.\u00a0A challenging and athletic promotion challenge that will lead the Kenyan legend to complete an official marathon in each of the\u00a0<\/span>seven continents of the earth<\/span><\/b>\u00a0(Africa, Europe, Asia, North America, South America, Oceania and Antarctica, under the strict standards of international resistance circuits).<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>

The Cape Town roar before the world elite\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>

The first station of this transcontinental trip was staged by the\u00a0<\/span>Cape Town Marathon<\/span><\/b>, in South Africa. Far from being a minor display, Kipchoge was measured face to face in the professional elite drawer. In a race of an amazing tactical level, the two-time Olympic champion gave a lesson in consistency and longevity by stopping the stopwatch at a remarkable one.\u00a0<\/span>2h13:29<\/span><\/b>, crossing the finish line on the\u00a0<\/span>16th position of the Absolute General Classification<\/span><\/b>.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>

While fans cheered Kipchoge’s regularity, the race head offered a wild show of pure speed. The Ethiopian\u00a0<\/span>Mohamed that<\/span><\/b>\u00a0It was established in the South African streets by signing a solo exhibition that destroyed the previous record of the circuit, stopping time in some stratospherics\u00a0<\/span>2h04:55<\/span><\/b>, consolidating the appointment of Cape Town as the fastest of African soil.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

The Corner of the Popular Runner:<\/span><\/b> <\/span><\/p>

Seeing Eliud Kipchoge to compete at the highest level with 41 years, defending a position among the twenty best professionals on the continent, is an ode to athletics in the background. <\/span><\/p>

The \u00abWorld Tour\u00bb is not a retirement ride; It is the demonstration that the passion for running does not understand ages or geographical limits. Your next stop in Oceania is already the most anticipated event of the quarter.<\/span> <\/span><\/p>

And… remember… as we always say on Trade&Trail: You will never run alone!!<\/span><\/b> <\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
