Eliud Kipchoge has also experienced the effects of the coronavirus. The world record holder on the marathon has had to leave his training camp and is preparing for the rest of the season at home.
“As a precaution, we decided to no longer train with fifty or sixty athletes together, but each for themselves,” said Valentijn Trouw, the manager of Kipchoge.
Kipchoge keeps a video diary for the BBC. “It is now six o’clock in the morning. This is day three,” said the Kenyan athlete, dressed in training outfit.
