The 27-year-old Kamworor, who won the New York Marathon last year, told local media about the accident.
- I was a kilometer away from home on my morning lap when a motorcycle drove me from behind. I fell and hit both my leg and my head. He (the driver) helped me up and drove me to the hospital.
There, it appeared that Komworor had broken the right tibia and also had a slight injury to his head. According to his doctor, he felt good after the operation.
Geoffrey Kamworor's training buddy Eliud Kipchoge, who holds the world record in the marathon, was hoping for a quick recovery.
"The world is full of uncertainties, one of them is what happened to my teammate and friend," he said.
