Rhonex Kipruto ran the fastest 10K on U.S. soil at Peachtree, so what makes him stand out in a country ripe with running talent?
Rhonex Kipruto has wowed his coaches and competitors, so what makes him stand out in a country ripe with running talent?Identifying the next big running star in Kenya, from the country’s incredible wealth of raw, hungry talent, is no easy thing. But for coach Ian Kiprono, a then 15-year-old Rhonex Kipruto stood out even as a scrawny, barefoot kid in a cross-country race a few years ago.—a sweet, fermented porridge made from millet and honey.
It was just the beginning for Rhonex Kiptuto. Now, only 19 years of age, he’s been leaving his mark on the roads and track, and on the Fourth of July ran the world’s biggest 10K, the Peachtree Road Race in Atlanta,. He ran 27:01 to better the mark set in 1996 by fellow Kenyan Joseph Kimani. As a result, Kipruto ran the fastest time ever recorded on U.S. soil.
