This powerful combination of technology and talent has already reaped rewards. After securing a dominant win at the 2025 Chicago Marathon and shattering the half-marathon world record this March in Lisbon, the 25-year-old is now targeting success at the 2026 London Marathon.

▲ Jacob Kiplimo trains for the London Marathon with his Galaxy Watch8.

To mark World Health Day (WHD) 2026 on April 7, Samsung Newsroom asked him to detail his data-driven training regime, which embodies this year’s WHD slogan, “Together for health. Stand with science.”

With exclusive access to his Samsung Health metrics, we take an inside look into his grueling training program, which has seen him cover over 100 km in just one week. Discover how insights led him to adjust his training for optimal recovery and how even a “rest day” can include a 3 km run.

▲ Screenshots from Kiplimo’s Samsung Health app show his varied training routine, including light jogs and long-distance runs.

Q. Congratulations on your recent world record at the 2026 Lisbon Half Marathon. What’s the secret to your success?

There’s no secret. It’s just about discipline. You have to work hard, be extremely focused, and manage your energy — knowing when to rest and when to push harder. But honestly, the most important part is that you have to really want what you’re working toward. I wouldn’t have broken the world record if I didn’t follow that formula.

Q. You finished second at the 2025 London Marathon and are now preparing to go one step further at this year’s event. What role has your Galaxy Watch8 played in your training?

My coach doesn’t live in Uganda, so my Galaxy Watch8 has basically become his personal assistant here. Even though he’s not with me, he can get real-time analysis and reports on my running form through the Running Analysis feature in Samsung Health. We track my heart rate and pay close attention to my pace for each kilometer. During the harder sessions, I also monitor the asymmetry readings to see if I’m overcompensating on one side so I can avoid strain. Contact time is another key aspect I keep an eye on, making small adjustments to my form to ensure every stride is as efficient as possible. I always try to improve my running economy, so these insights are incredibly helpful.

▲ Kiplimo’s Samsung Health data from March 13–19 reveals how he ramps up his training routine throughout the week.

Q. Looking at your recent Samsung Health data, we can see some clear patterns in your training routine. Tell us about your regime.

Consistency is key, but athletes must not be obsessed with training. What many people don’t realize is that rest is equally as important as physical training. To compete at your best, you need to be able to maximize your energy, and the only way to do that is through consistent rest. But “rest” doesn’t always mean no training. A rest day can mean running 3 km instead of 40 km. You have to be consistent in what you’re doing, but you also need to listen to your body and know when to slow down. Technology can help a lot with this.

Q. Can you give us an example of how a specific insight from the Samsung Health app led you to adapt your training program?

The decision to run 3 km instead of 40 km that I just mentioned was a true story. After experiencing some lingering soreness during a recent 24 km run, I decided to turn what was intended to be a 40 km run into a light 3 km jog to ensure I could recover and have the stamina to get through 40 km another day. The Samsung Health app was very helpful for me here. It kept me informed so I could allow my body to fully recover and prevent a potential injury or burnout.

Q. We’ve seen how a professional runner like yourself uses data to reach their goals. What advice would you give to someone who is just starting their running journey, and how can the Running Coach feature get them on the right track?

For beginners, it is very important to ease into things and be patient. You will build up stamina over time; it’s about knowing when to push yourself and when to stop. Not everyone has a personal coach with them to tailor a training plan. But the Running Coach feature provides customized programs to help even beginners train for a marathon. It tells you exactly what you should be doing during a run, motivates you and helps you improve. New runners are fortunate to have this fantastic technology which can guide them every step of the way. It’s also great for more experienced runners looking to take on a full marathon as it provides structured training programs.

Q. On World Health Day, the message is “Together for health, stand with science.” How does this relate to your own philosophy?

Science helps me throughout my training. I don’t know where I would be without the ability to track data on my Galaxy Watch8. I use that science to shape my daily routine. Science and technology help me perform at my best, and I believe they can do the same for anyone.

From a young runner in Uganda to a world-record holder, Kiplimo proves what happens when relentless dedication meets smart technology. Whether you are an elite athlete striving for the podium or someone taking your first steps towards a healthier lifestyle, Galaxy Watch8 provides actionable insights to help you build healthier habits and reach your goals.

To mark World Sleep Day 2026, a global study of Samsung Health users[2] is shedding new light on the true extent of the condition and the disruptive impact it has on your sleep. Aligned with this year’s World Sleep Day theme, “Sleep Well, Live Better,” Samsung is turning the invisible signs of sleep apnea into actionable insights through its Galaxy Watch series, helping those affected improve their sleep habits and overall health.

How Does Sleep Apnea Impact Your Sleep?

The report found that 23% of study participants are at risk of sleep apnea.

“The microarousals and awakenings that follow breathing pauses fragment your sleep,” explains behavioral sleep scientist Dr. Vanessa Hill. “Those occurrences can prevent the brain from staying in the REM and deep sleep stages necessary for cognitive and physical restoration.”

The report shows these constant disruptions take a direct toll on sleep duration and quality, leading to:

• Reduced REM Sleep: Participants with moderate to severe sleep apnea indicators detected by their Galaxy Watch got around four minutes less rapid eye movement (REM) sleep, the phase where our brains process emotions, consolidate memories and cement learning. Without enough of it, people can experience mood instability and memory problems, impacting performance at work and overall well-being.

• Less Deep Sleep: Sleep apnea also robs sufferers of deep sleep, approximately eight minutes less per night, on average. This is the body’s critical physical restoration phase, where growth hormone is released, muscles are repaired, and your immune system is activated. Losing out on deep sleep is why you may feel physically exhausted, have slower recovery times, and get sick more often.

• Frequent Nightly Awakenings: Study participants with signs of sleep apnea also woke up regularly during the night and stayed awake around four minutes longer. These interruptions derail the sleep cycle, locking you into lighter, less restorative stages and making next-day exhaustion inevitable, no matter how long you slept.

• Shorter Sleep Duration: Overall, people with a higher likelihood of sleep apnea averaged around 12 minutes less sleep. While this loss may seem minor, it can have a significant impact on overall sleep quality as your sleep cycle gets fragmented throughout the night.

Why It Matters: “Even a small loss in sleep duration is compounded by a larger loss of sleep quality,” said Dr. Hill. “This can be the difference between simply being ‘in bed’ and getting restorative rest, which could be why people feel so tired the next day.”

Dr. Hill also advocates a multidimensional approach to sleep health. “Sleep apnea affects many dimensions of sleep — duration, quality, sleep efficiency and even daytime fatigue,” she stated. “They together help determine our health and functioning.”

With sleep apnea shown to impact all aspects of sleep and lead to other health complications, detection is an essential first step in the fight against the condition.

How Does Galaxy Watch Help Detect Signs of Moderate to Severe Sleep Apnea?   

For years, sleep apnea has been difficult to detect due to the need for inconvenient hospital tests. However, Samsung offers at-home detection with a first-of-its-kind Sleep Apnea[3] feature on your Galaxy Watch.

• How It Works: Users simply track their sleep with a compatible Galaxy Watch[4] for more than four hours over two nights within a ten-day period. Available through the Samsung Health Monitor app, the Sleep Apnea feature enables users to proactively spot signs of the condition. Initially launched in Korea, the feature has since received De Novo authorization from the U.S. FDA and is now available in 78 markets[5] worldwide and counting.

• The Technology: Leveraging the Galaxy Watch’s BioActive Sensor, the feature tracks blood oxygen levels to determine when the user stops breathing (apnea) or is not breathing enough (hypopnea). Based on this data, the feature estimates the user’s Apnea-Hypopnea Index (AHI), which indicates the severity of obstructive sleep apnea(OSA).

• From Awareness to Action: By detecting signs of sleep apnea early, the feature provides the data needed for an informed consultation with a medical professional. In addition to tackling sleep apnea, your Galaxy Watch can help you build habits for better holistic sleep health. Features include the Sleep Coaching program for detailed analysis and tips on how to improve sleep quality and Bedtime Guidance,[6] which recommends your optimal bedtime to ensure you consistently get enough sleep.

“For years, the inconvenience of an in-lab clinical sleep study has been a barrier to diagnosing sleep apnea,” added Dr. Hill. “Wearable technology such as Galaxy Watch is a breakthrough because it democratizes that first step. It allows people to gather meaningful data from their own beds, providing a starting point for a conversation with a healthcare professional.”

Take Control of Your Night

A good night’s sleep is the first step toward a healthier, more energized life, and Samsung is here to guide you. Samsung’s ecosystem offers end-to-end care, from detecting signs of sleep apnea on your Galaxy Watch to providing suggestions to receive professional adviceto connecting you with professional advice through our health network.

Looking ahead, Samsung is constantly innovating and improving the Sleep Apnea feature to make it even more powerful with sharper insights. Prioritize your rest today to unlock a healthier tomorrow.

Thanks to advancements in technology such as mobile artificial intelligence (AI), you can now take your wellness journey to the next level with Samsung’s range of connected devices, powered by AI to make everything easier and more seamless.

Driving this suite of health AI experiences are the latest Galaxy Z Fold6 and Galaxy Z Flip6, as well as the latest Galaxy Watch Ultra and Galaxy Watch7, which open new possibilities for those committed to doing right by their bodies, whether with personalised insights that help them stay on top of their everyday wellness, or by offering coaching that empowers users to perform at their best throughout their fitness journeys.

Seamlessly integrated with Samsung’s extensive range of connected home appliances, here are four ways that users can build a holistic ecosystem that supports an active and healthy lifestyle.

Tip #1: Eat and sleep well

Start your day by understanding your body’s unique needs with the Galaxy Watch Ultra and Galaxy Watch7. Samsung Health[1] gathers all data and insights unto one cohesive platform with no subscription needed.

New features like the Galaxy AI-powered Energy Score[2], calculated by evaluating your physical and mental conditions across four significant factors – Sleep, Activity, Sleeping Heart Rate and Sleeping Heart Rate Variability – will help you not only better understand the ways your health influences your daily life, but also provides insights based on your current physical state to focus your daily efforts on making improvements. Additionally, with Wellness Tips[3], you can receive personalised messages aimed at enhancing your well-being across all areas of your health journey.

Armed with this information, you can also make more informed decisions about nutrition. Download the Samsung Food app on your Galaxy Z Series smartphone to use in conjunction with the Bespoke 4-Door Flex Refrigerator with AI Family Hub+, and create personalised meals based on your health needs with Tailored Meal Plan[4], which analyses users’ information by connecting to their Samsung Health profile[5]. This ensures you are better equipped to fuel your body with nutritious meals and maintain optimal energy levels throughout the day.

Tip #2: Train well

For high performance enthusiasts looking to meet and beat their goals such as participating in a marathon, the Race feature[6] on both the Galaxy Watch Ultra and Galaxy Watch7 lets you compare current and past performance in real-time to track progress and maintain motivation, while Personalized HR Zone[7] on the Galaxy Watch Ultra lets you work out at optimal intensity levels based on your physical capabilities.

As a fitness champion, your goal might even be taking on a triathlon. Lock in that accomplishment with the Galaxy Watch Ultra that also comes with the Multi-sports tile feature that lets you track multi-course workouts such as a triathlon, from swimming to cycling to running. To really unlock your full potential at cycling, the all-new Functional Threshold Power (FTP) accurately measures maximum cycling power in just 4 minutes with AI-powered FTP metrics[8].

During recovery and downtime, stay motivated by immersing yourself in your favorite sporting action on the thinner and lighter Galaxy Z Fold6 which comes with an even brighter fold-out screen[9].  If you are out and about, catch highlights of the action on the Galaxy Z Fold6 or Galaxy Z Flip6 smartphones while on the go, as you use Circle to Search with Google to discover new athletes to be inspired by.

Tip #3: Move well

Transform your home into a personalised fitness studio with the Workout Routine feature on your Galaxy Watch7 and Galaxy Watch Ultra, which lets you build routines by combining various exercises with Workout Routine to achieve your goals, so your daily routine stays fresh and interesting.

Tip #4: Rest well

Eating well and training hard are important parts of health and wellness, but equally important is being able to get quality sleep, so that your body can rest and recover.

The enhanced BioActive Sensor on Galaxy Watch Ultra and the Galaxy Watch7 offers increased accuracy[10] empowering you to better understand yourself with comprehensive readings. For those who often have problems sleeping, your Galaxy Watch7 also comes with a new advanced sleep AI algorithm for sleep analysis.

Galaxy Watch Ultra and Galaxy Watch7 also come with Sleep Mode on SmartThings, which dims the screen to avoid disturbing your sleep with light. You can also automate your connected devices using SmartThings for more peaceful nights. For example, with custom routines on SmartThings, effortlessly control your home’s lighting, blinds, thermostat, and even your Samsung WindFree air conditioner, so that the latter’s WindFree technology[11] and 23,000 micro air holes[12] gently and evenly disperse cool air, creating the ideal conditions for restful and restorative sleep.

Gift of care for your mom

This Mother’s Day, show your appreciation for the most important woman in your life with a gift that embodies health and care – the Galaxy Watch6 series.

At the core of Galaxy Watch6 series, lies its advanced health monitoring capabilities. It offers real-time tracking of vital health metrics such as heart rate, blood pressure, and sleep quality. With personalized insights and alerts, your loved ones can stay informed about their health status and take proactive steps towards a healthier lifestyle. For example, they can stay active by setting personalised daily or weekly targets for steps or exercise. Additionally, they can rely on the sleep coach to incorporate better habits to get sufficient and hopefully better rest every night.

As we age, we are more susceptible to the natural processes of aging and the challenges of disease such as diabetes, overweight, hypertension and dementia. To age healthily, having a useful tool to monitor our key health metrics all day is essential, which is why Galaxy Watch6 comes in useful. The information will be recorded in Samsung Health and the historical data will come in handy for the next medical consultation.

What better way to honour the special women in your life than by giving them the gift of health? Whether she’s a retiree, a homemaker, a busy professional, or fitness enthusiast, the Galaxy Watch6 series is the perfect companion to accompany her every step of the way towards healthy ageing.

A smartwatch can be a game changer when it comes to achieving your health and fitness goals. Finding the right smartwatch is also important to get the features you need to succeed. Which Galaxy Watch5 are you? Take the quiz to find out.

Wear the Galaxy Watch5 Pro to new and unfamiliar treks. Set up Route Target, which lets you import map routes for your next adventure, then find your way back safely with Track Back’s voice or vibration-guided turn-by-turn navigation. If you work out in a gym or at home, connect the Galaxy Watch5 to the Samsung Health app for tons of fitness programs to choose from. Hook it up to your Samsung TV for the whole family to work out together.

Track your BP, ECG, body composition, sleep pattern, stress levels, nutrition intake and more, anytime, anywhere with the Galaxy Watch5 Pro and Galaxy Watch5. But while the Galaxy Watch5 Pro is your durable camping or outdoor essential, the Galaxy Watch5 is perfect as an everyday watch for a stroll around town and less vigorous activities.

Get down and dirty with the Galaxy Watch5 Pro. With a stunning Sapphire crystal[1] front display, it’s twice as tough compared to the previous models to withstand hard knocks. But hey, the Galaxy Watch5 is tough too with Sapphire crystal that’s 1.6x tougher[2] than the previous model and works well for everyday wellness goals. Both watches are IP68-rated[3] for water resistance.

Equipped with a 590mAh[4] typical battery, the Galaxy Watch5 Pro will be with you from dusk till dawn. You can be out longer without needing to recharge. Not far off, the larger-sized Galaxy Watch5 has a battery of up to 410mAh[5], which also sports an upgrade compared to the previous model.

Black is never basic with the elegant Galaxy Watch5 Pro. With two colour options, the smartwatch looks indestructible in a Black Titanium or Gray Titanium body. Paint with all the colours of the wind with the Galaxy Watch5’s Sapphire, Pink Gold, Silver and Graphite options. Have total freedom to express your style by changing up your watch strap, whether its genuine leather for a classic look, the sports band for a comfortable fit, or something fun like The Simpsons or Star Wars straps.

If you answered mostly A’s, the Galaxy Watch5 Pro is the sportier, outdoorsy choice for you. If you answered mostly B’s, then the Galaxy Watch5 is the everyday wellness companion you need.
