🚨 HISTORY LOADING... 🚨 Nike has announced that on June 26th, triple Olympic 1500m champion and mile world record holder Faith Kipyegon will attempt to do what no woman ever has: run a sub-4-minute mile. Dubbed Breaking4, the event at Paris’ Stade Charléty echoes Kipchoge’s iconic Breaking2 effort in the marathon — except this time, it’s all about redefining what’s possible for women in sport. 🗣️ “I’m a three-time Olympic champion. I’ve achieved World Championship titles. I thought, What else? Why not dream outside the box? And I told myself, ‘If you believe in yourself, and your team believes in you, you can do it.’” Kipyegon currently holds the world record at 4:07.64 from 2023. Her 1500m personal best of 3:49.04 roughly converts to a 4:06.5 mile. Kipygeon has been training in Kaptagat, Kenya, and will open her 2025 outdoor track season on Saturday, April 26th with the 1000m at the Xiamen Diamond League in China. 💻 Read more here: citiusmag.com/articles/faith…
