Stephen Kiprotich recently had to cancel his training programs because of the trauma he is going through after losing his one year old ‘Golden girl’ Elizabeth Chelangat, the last of his children.
The one-year-old who breathed her last while being transferred from Mbale to Mulago hospital was buried on Sunday by thousands of mourners from the Uganda athletics fraternity, Uganda Prisons and well wishers in Kwati Village, Kapchorwa District.
We extend our heartfelt condolences to the family of the great athlete and Nations hero Steven Kiprotich. May God be with you in this trying moment and we hope you get back on your feet very soon.
Meanwhile, Kiprotich will defend his title at the World Championships at the Beijing Bird’s Nest Stadium in China from August 22-30.
