Kipchoge began his preparation in Vienna as he was seen with some of his pacemakers running.
The INEOS Challenge date has not been revealed as organizers are still weighing on the best day that will provide Eliud with favourable weather conditions to run comfortably.
Kenyan have rallied behind Kipchoge urging him to beat the world record.
