This June at Paris’ Stade Sébastien Charléty, the legendary @faithkipyegon will attempt to do what no woman has done before: run a mile in less than four minutes. Kipyegon will have to drop nearly eight seconds from the current world record that she holds—4:07.64. Shaving that much time in a distance where improvement is measured in hundredths of a second is, to say the least, incredibly difficult. Dubbed "Breaking4," Faith will run on a closed course with world-class pacers to reduce aerodynamic drag and maximize performance. "I have to push barriers, to show other young women that you can do everything," says Faith. Ahead of her historic attempt, we went inside her Kenyan training camp to see how she’s preparing—and to hear why she thinks motherhood has made her faster. Read more at the link in bio.
