## Caption

Just wanted to give a birthday shout out to one of the nicest guys I’ve met on the circuit—a man who I consider a great friend, Bernard Lagat!

I’ve been privileged to have covered and chronicled his races all over the world, from Eugene to Moscow, and all points in between.

Have a great day, Kip—you’re only 29 years old once! 😂🎂
