Daniel Muchunu Mwangi (born 1984) is a Kenyan long-distance runner. He is a joint world record holder for the ekiden marathon relay race.

Biography

He gained an athletic scholarship as a teenager to train and study in Japan. In 2003 he ran bests of 13:38.70 minutes and 28:13.34 minutes for the 5000 metres and 10,000 metres, respectively.[1] He also ran at the Sapporo Half Marathon that year and came eighth in a personal best time of 1:03:16 hours.[2] He improved his 5000 m best to 13:29.18 minutes in the 2004 season. He improved this further in 2005, running 13:18.21 minutes.[1] He had two consecutive wins over the distance at the Oda Memorial in 2006 and 2007.[3]

At the 2005 New Year Ekiden, he ran for the JAL AGS corporate team and won the first stage, completing the distance just one second short of Martin Mathathi's record.[4] The 2005 International Chiba Ekiden in November saw Mwangi help break the world record for the ekiden marathon relay race as part of a Kenyan team including Josephat Ndambiri, Martin Mathathi, Mekubo Mogusu, Onesmus Nyerere and John Kariuki.[5] He returned to the New Year Ekiden race in 2006 and again won the first leg for JAL AGS.[6]

In 2008 he switched to marathon running and made his debut at the Beppu-Ōita Marathon. He fell over and lost a shoe mid-race but rejoined the leading pack and eventually finished in fifth place with a time of 2:14:28 hours.[7] His second outing over the distance came at the Fukuoka Marathon and his run of 2:14:13 hours was a little faster, but this was only enough for twelfth place. He has not competed since this race.
