Kenyan athlete Dennis Kimetto is set for a Ksh10,400,00 million ($80,000) windfall if he clinches victory in the 2025 Dubai Marathon on Sunday, January 12. In the event that Kimetto does not achieve first place, second place will guarantee him Ksh5,200,000 ($40,000).
A third-place finish for Kimetto will see him walking away with Ksh2,600,000 ($20,000).
The veteran athlete will be Kenya's sole representative in the flat-course marathon that is known for its normally fast times.
The course records are 2:03:34 by Geteneh Molla and 2:16:07 by Tigist Ketema.
