As of 2024, the Boston Marathon might be his most lucrative offering to date. The Boston Marathon offers a $50,000 course record, and gold medalists get $150,000. While some fluctuations may be evident based on wins and losses cumulatively, his income will remain the same through his sponsorships and, most importantly, through his farm business.

How did the Kenyan runner amass his current wealth?

Evans’ proficiency as a long-distance runner is instrumental in amassing his substantial net worth. For instance, Eliud Kipchoge is unquestionably a better marathoner than Galen Rupp. Kipchoge is the greatest marathoner in history, as a matter of fact — and his times or medal record on the track were better than Rupp’s. But Kipchoge is Kenyan, whereas Rupp has been the face of American distance running for much of this decade, and as a result, it’s estimated that Nike pays Rupp over $200,000 per year more than Kipchoge. That’s how it works. He invests his money in training facilities in his hometown, Kenya. 

The Kenyan long-distance runner who once could only afford two meals a day from a small village is now charting greener pastures, one that might take him to the behemoth Olympic games as well. Evans Chebet has come a long way due to his hard work and incredible performances. He’s where he should be. Though having all this in hand, he never forgets his roots, making him all the more worth rooting for.
