Elijah Motonei Manangoi (born 5 January 1993) is a Kenyan middle-distance runner.[2] He won the gold medal in the 1500 metres at the 2017 World Athletics Championships and the silver in the same event in 2015. Manangoi also won the 1500m at the 2018 Commonwealth Games.

In 2019, the Athletics Integrity Unit banned Manangoi for two years due to whereabouts failures, as he had missed three doping tests within a 12-month period.[3]

Manangoi was cited as one of the Top 100 most influential Africans by New African magazine in 2017.[4]
