ATHLETICS Daniel Simiu opens up on his remarkable sportsmanship act of letting Sawe win Half Marathon
Daniel Simiu has shared the reason why he let Sabastian Sawe win the Half Marathon at the World Road Running Championships.
He made his debut at the Berlin Marathon in 2013 where he finished second and since then, he has only recorded wins. He returned in 2015 where he bagged his first title and also competed in 2017, winning his second title.
He set his first world record in the edition of the marathon in 2019 and later proceeded to lower his time at the 2022 edition of the event. The 2014 Chicago Marathon champion then made history, bagging his fifth title in the 2023 edition of the marathon.
The streets of Berlin have been good to him but he might just ditch them next year. His huge plan is to successfully defend his Olympic title but he is yet to decide what next after the Olympic Games.
“I’ve not yet decided where to run next…I always handle one thing at a time and I always focus on that philosophy.
I trust that is the only way to take me places. Any decision that comes to my mind I’ll just let the world know,” Kipchoge said.
He will be looking to become the first man to win the Olympic title in the marathon three times and he believes he still has it in his legs to go.
