According to the wife of his coach, Kiptum called him suddenly in the evening to help him with errands.
“Kiptum called my husband in the evening and asked him to go help with some errands in town, and I never saw him again,” Hakizimana’s widow, Joan Jelimo stated.
What was so important to be done that he ends up driving home at 11pm, when you are training 300km a week to break 2 hours in a race just weeks away?
I also read that after their last training session that day, Kiptum oddly asked his coach to pose for a photo of themselves together, and thanked him for everything he had done.
