Eliud Kipchoge announces plan to complete 7 marathons across 7 continents.

Kipchoge launches a seven-continent marathon tour to inspire runners and support global education and environment.

Olympic – (Special Correspondent / Web Desk) – Eliud Kipchoge, a two-time Olympic marathon winner, has announced that he will run seven marathons on seven continents over the next two years to raise money for organizations he believes in, while continuing to race at the best level.
Kipchoge’s “World Tour” was announced after the Kenyan great, a former world record holder, finished the New York Marathon on Sunday in 17th place in 2 hours, 14 minutes, and 36 seconds, amid shouts from the audience in Central Park.
“This unprecedented two-year journey will take (Kipchoge) across the world to compete in marathons on all seven continents, while continuing to race at the elite level,” Kipchoge’s management team stated.

“This project aims to inspire the world to become a running world while raising funds for the Eliud Kipchoge Foundation in support of education and environmental causes worldwide, bridging the things that Eliud so deeply cares for.”

Before Sunday’s race, Kipchoge told Olympics.com that he wanted to run in Antarctica, saying his new project was a chance to “do that extreme thing that can make someone work hard.”

Pakistan plans to deploy its first Chinese submarine in 2026.

Kipchoge, who will turn 41 on Tuesday, said in a statement that his globetrotting project will let him “compete not only for records but for the people.

“I want to continue to push myself to run at my best but I also want to inspire, give back, and remind everyone that no human is limited. “
