The double Olympic champion opened up about the torment of facing baseless accusations and online abuse following the tragic death of fellow Kenyan athlete Kelvin Kiptum. In an exclusive interview with BBC Sport Africa, Kipchoge recounts the distressing ordeal and its profound impact on his life and career.
Kiptum is set to be laid to rest later today at his farm in Naiberi, Uasin Gishu County.
Kiptum's coffin was carried in a hearse through the streets of Eldoret town with some people singing and others holding burning candles.
Athletics Kenya says the cancellation is in honour of World Marathon record holder who passed on recently in tragic road accident
The death of Kiptum, favourite for the marathon at the Paris Olympics later this year, has shocked Kenya and the world of athletics.
The athlete drove in the ditch for about 60 metres before hitting a big tree.
