It's been an eventful four-year interval since the internationally renowned marathon sensation, Eliud Kipchoge, graced the bustling streets of Shanghai. Hailing from Kenya and a double Olympic gold medalist, Kipchoge is universally acclaimed as the preeminent marathon runner of our era. He continues to display unwavering dedication in his mission to disseminate the ardor for running and engage with local running enthusiasts.
26 year old Scottish middle distance runner, Jake Wightman, has had a fruitful 2020. After Covid-19 disrupted his Olympic and European Championship campaigns, Wightman went into a period of training, and experimented with more speed work.
It's a strategy that has paid off for the Edinburgh based athlete.
In Monaco, August 14 2020, Wightman stormed to 2nd on the all-time UK rankings list clocking 3:29.47. Only Mo Farah remains in front of Wightman, with this 3:28.81 set in 2013. It propels Wightman past some very famous names; Steve Cram, Steve Ovett, and of course Sebastian Coe.
