Kennedy Kimutai trains with world-record holder Eliud Kipchoge, two-time New York City Marathon champion Geoffrey Kamworor and two-time New York City Marathon runner-up Emmanuel Mutai in Kenya. Last year, he took fourth place at both the Cardiff Half Marathon and AJC Peachtree Road Race.

Kimutai grew up raised by a single mother and did not receive any structured running training until later in his life when he joined a training group.
