Vincent Kipruto is a man on a mission. The winds slowed him down last year in Frankfurt, so in 2014, Vincent wants to win and run a personal best. Vincent has run 2:05.13 and 2:05.33, so he has wheels.

Last year, in a very exciting race, Vincent Kipruto held off Mark Kiptoo by one second! This was not a 100 meter dash, but a marathon! And an exciting one it was.

In this interview, our friend, Andy Edwards, of Race News Service, speaks with Vincent Kipruto, literally a few hours after he arrived in Frankurt from Kenya. This interview was done on Thursday, October 24, 2014 at the Movenpick Frankfurt near the Messe Frankfurt.
