• ... that although he was expected to exit the race after about 30 km (19 mi), pacemaker Reuben Kipyego ended up winning the Abu Dhabi Marathon and 100,000 USD? Source: https://archive.today/20230521234346/https://www.runnersworld.com/news/a30152339/pacer-wins-abu-dhabi-marathon/

  • Comment: runner's world appears to have misspelt his name. the spelling in the twitter post for the first name appears to be accurate (but not the second).

General: Article is new enough and long enough
New enough: Long enough:

Policy: Article is sourced, neutral, and free of copyright problems
Adequate sourcing: Neutral: Free of copyright violations, plagiarism, and close paraphrasing:

Hook: Hook has been verified by provided inline citation
Cited: Interesting:

QPQ: Done.

Overall: The spelling seems to be disputed between different reliable sources including Reuters, Kipyego is certainly correct but not sure Reuben or Reuban. Reuben is used widely so I really hope it is correct. the hook is included in the text (not verbatim which is not required anyway). Hook good to go, good work!
