A few words about how the runner's career began...

Kevin's running career started in 2009 as a five-year-old child at the Linz Junior Marathon in the 421 meter competition, which he sensationally won promptly. As a result, he often competed very successfully in various children's races as part of road races, mainly in the province of Upper Austria. At the age of 7 he joined the club ATSV Linz LA to train regularly. He attended the Sport-NMS Linz, where he also set the school record in the Cooper Test in his final year, which still stands today.

No human is limited.

If you believe in something and put it in your mind and heart, it can be realised.

Athletics is not so much about the legs. It's about the heart and mind.

Eliud Kipchoge
