SKOR.id - Kabar duka datang dari dunia atletik. Pelari jarak jauh asal Kenya, Kelvin Kiptum, dilaporkan meninggal dunia pada Minggu (11/2/2024).

Kelvin Kiptum mengembuskan napas terakhirnya usai mengalami kecelakaan lalu lintas di daerah Kaptagat, Kenya.

Petinggi Kepolisian Wilayah Elgeyo Marakwet, Peter Mulinge, menjelaskan bahwa kecelakaan maut yang merenggut nyawa Kelvin Kiptum terjadi pada pukul 23.00.

Saat itu, Kelvin Kiptum mengendarai mobil menuju ke Eldoret ditemani oleh sang pelatih Gervais Haizimana dan seorang perempuan bernama Sharon Kosgey.

Saat berada di ruas jalan Elgeyo Marakwet–Ravine, Kiptum kehilangan kendali mobil sehingga mengalami kecelakaan tunggal.

“Ini adalah kecelakaan tunggal di mana Kelvin Kiptum adalah sosok yang mengendarai mobil dengan dua penumpang,” kata Peter Mulinge dikutip dari Nation.

“Kiptum dan Hakizimana meninggal di tempat sementara korban ketiga dilarikan ke Rumah Sakit Racecourse di Eldoret.”

Kabar kepergian Kelvin Kiptum ini tentu membuat banyak orang terkejut dan sedih, tak terkecuali Sebastian Coe selaku Presiden World Athletics.

“Kami terkejut dan sangat sedih mengetahui kabar meninggalnya Kelvin Kiptum dan pelatihnya, Gervais Hakizimana,” kata Sebastian Coe.

“Atas nama World Athletis, kami menyampaikan dukacita terdalam untuk keluarga, teman, rekan setim, dan bangsa Kenya.”

“Baru saja pada awal pekan ini di Chicago, tempat Kelvin mencetak rekor dunia lari maraton, saya mengesahkan catatan waktu bersejarah miliknya,” Coe melanjutkan.

“Seorang atlet hebat telah meninggalkan warisan yang luar biasa. Kami akan sangat merindukannya.”

Nama Kelvin Kiptum jadi sorotan usai berhasil menjuarai Chicago Marathon 2023 yang berlangsung 8 Oktober tahun lalu.

Pelari kelahiran 2 Desember 1999 tersebut jadi kampiun Chicago Marathon 2023 usai berlari sepanjang 42,195 km dalam waktu 2 jam 35 detik.

Catatan waktu itu membuat Kelvin Kiptum memecahkan rekor lari maraton yang sebelumnya dipegang kompatriotnya, Eliud Kipchoge (2 jam 1 menit 9 detik).

Pencapaian Kiptum kala itu terasa makin luar biasa karena diraih di lomba maraton ketiga dalam kariernya.

Sebelum menandai debut maraton dengan menjuarai Valencia Marathon 2022, Kiptum lebih sering turun di lomba lari nomor 10 Km dan half marathon.

Dengan progres impresif yang ditunjukkan tahun lalu, Kiptum pun digadang-gadang bakal jadi pelari pertama yang bisa menuntaskan lomba maraton di bawah dua jam.

Setelah menjuarai Chicago Marathon 2023 pada Oktober tahun lalu, Kelvin Kiptum belum mengikuti lomba maraton apa pun.

Juara London Marathon 2023 itu sendiri baru dijadwalkan untuk kembali beraksi di Rotterdam Marathon 2024 pada April nanti.

Sayang, kecelakaan maut membuyarkan rencana tersebut karena Kelvin Kiptum telah pergi untuk selama-lamanya.
