The men's marathon world record holder, Kenya's Kelvin Kiptum, 24, has died in a road accident in his home country.

Kiptum made a breakthrough in 2023 as a rival to compatriot Eliud Kipchoge - one of the greatest marathon runners.

Newshour's Tim Franks asked Adharanand Finn, author of Running with the Kenyans, about his legacy.
