Kelvin Kiptum and His Coach dead in road accident

Very sad day for Kenyas. RIP Kelvin. I hope Kipchoge don't take the blame, but he wasn't happy or even tried to share podium with him.

While Kenyan roads are dangerous.

Kenyan cartels may be more dangerous than roads.

The "in the company of a woman" storyline seems very common when famous men die suddenly.

I completely agree.
No guard rails
Very steep inclines on the roadside

This sucks.  There goes the sub 2 hour world record.

Driving above 80KPH at night at such a road is plain suicidal. Status won't save you.

I think they must have been doing 80mph, not kpm.
Also, being young you think it cant happen.
