The long-distance runner is looking to write one more chapter in the history books with a record-breaking third Olympic marathon win, at the Paris Games. The sun is yet to rise, but a group of runners emerge from a mud path onto the side of a road. This is what Olympic preparation looks like for arguably the greatest distance runner of all time, Eliud Kipchoge. In 2019, in Vienna, he shattered one of the most formidable barriers in sports by becoming the first person to run a marathon in under two hours. With the Games upon us, Kipchoge remains laser-focused on clinching his third consecutive gold medal in the marathon.

Kipyegon and a string of top athletes are continuing to prove that elite sport and motherhood are not incompatible. “[Jamaican sprinter] Shelly Ann Fraser Pryce came back after maternity leave, and [US runner] Allison Felix, and we met in Tokyo at the 2021 Olympic Games,” she recalls. At those Games, Felix won a gold and a bronze and Fraser-Pryce won silver to become the most decorated 100m sprinter in Olympic history. Courtesy NN Running TeamThe Kenyan's training regime for the Paris Games has been intense, and partially under the mentorship of men's marathon legend Eliud Kipchoge. “Going to Paris and remembering the history I’ve talked about and getting that gold medal, it’ll be a huge history for me,” she says.

(CNN) To most people, the words Swiss sport and Emmental might trigger thoughts of Roger Federer eating cheese. Sending projectiles hurtling through the air at 200 miles per hour, all rise -- and then duck -- for Hornussen. Scoring starts if they reach the 100-meter line, with an additional point awarded for every 10 meters past the marker. "It's really dangerous if you don't see the Nouss or if one hits the bat and, two meters before the face, the Nouss changes direction," Kummer explained. Around 260 teams are active across a multi-league pyramid in Switzerland, with the top teams fighting it out for the Swiss Championship.
