THE STORY

Edna Ngeringwony Kiplagat is a two-time World Marathon Champion, taking gold for Kenya at the 2011 Daegu and 2013 Moscow World Championships. She has built one of the longest elite careers in women's marathoning, with major victories spanning more than a decade.

Kiplagat won the New York City Marathon in 2010, the London Marathon in 2014, and the Boston Marathon in 2017. At age 41 she was promoted to the 2021 Boston Marathon title following the disqualification of the original winner, becoming the oldest official winner of any World Marathon Major.

Her marathon personal best of 2:19:50 was set at the 2012 London Marathon. She continues to compete at major championships into her mid-forties.
