Agnes Jepkemboi Kiprop (born 14 January 1980) is a Kenyan long-distance runner who competes in marathon events. Initially a cross country specialist, she has focused on marathons since 2008 and has won races in Reims, Turin, Frankfurt, Prague and Hannover. She holds a personal best of 2:23:54 hours for the event.
The 2011 Frankfurt Marathon saw her set a new personal best of 2:23:54 hours and she took second place behind Mamitu Daska. She knocked a minute off her best at the Roma-Ostia Half Marathon in February 2012 and her time of 1:07:22 hours brought her second place behind Florence Kiplagat. She dropped out of the 2012 Boston Marathon due to a bout of typhoid but was the surprise winner of the Prague International Marathon soon after, outrunning her more favoured training partner Lydia Cheromei. She returned to the Roma-Ostia race in 2013 and was runner-up again, this time to Filomena Cheyech. She has won the Hannover Marathon in Germany in 2018.
Her 2010 season began at the Ras Al Khaimah Half Marathon. She improved her best for the distance to 1:08:48 hours, but this was only enough for eighth at the high calibre race. Entering the 2010 Boston Marathon in April, she failed to win her fourth consecutive race and was far from her best with an eleventh place finish. She returned to defend her title at the Frankfurt Marathon and, in spite of a personal best run of 2:24:07, she came third behind Caroline Kilel and Dire Tune. She started her next season again at the Ras Al Khaimah race and improved to fifth place. She claimed the runner-up spot at the Paris Marathon two months later.
