And joy at the end of the marathon.” Universal has released an official trailer for an inspirational sports biopic documentary titled Kipchoge: The Last Milestone, about the award-winning Kenyan marathon runner Eliud Kipchoge.

He is the world record holder in the marathon with 2:01:39, set at the 2018 Berlin Marathon; and has been described as “the greatest marathoner of the modern era”.
