As a measure to curb spread of COVID-19 pandemic, individuals are urged to among other things observe social distancing.
The 35-year-old has continued to do personal training despite major sporting events including the 2020 Tokyo Olympics being postponed.
“I’ve been enjoying these wonderful runs in the early morning when the roads are empty. I miss my teammates but our main goal at the moment is to stay healthy,” Kipchoge tweeted.
