Ibrahim Hussein Biography
| Birthday | Jun 3 |
| Birth Year | 1958 |
Ibrahim Hussein is one of the most popular and richest Runner who was born on June 3, 1958 in Kapsabet, Nandi County, Kenya.
His 1988 win in Boston was a photo finish with Juma Ikangaa. Hussein held off Ikangaa by a mere second. This was the closest Boston Marathon finish ever up until that point. There would be a closer finish in 2000 when Elijah Lagat won. Ikangaa would go on to finish second again in the next two Boston Marathons but would never win it.
Ibrahim Hussein was the first Kenyan (and also the first African) to win Boston, setting a world record and having books written on his legacy. Since his 1988 win, the Kenyans have come to dominate Boston. In fact, Kenyans have won the race every year since 1988 with exceptions in 1989, 1990, 2001, 2005, 2009, 2013, 2014 and 2015. The only non-African to win Boston since 1988 were South Korean Lee Bong-Ju and Italian Gelindo Bordin.
