What do we know about the country of Kenya?

Cradle of humankind: Kenya

Kenya is sometimes referred to as the cradle of humankind?

But what does that mean?

Kenya: the road to a modern nation

Kenya: World's best long distance runners?

“Internationally, Kalenjin runners have won close to 73% of all Kenyan gold medals and a similar percentage of silver medals at major international running competitions,”

They’ve passed on the passion for running across generations, turning the Rift Valley – especially the small town of Iten – into a mecca for the nation’s elite long distance runners. There, children start running at a young age.

Most of the Kenyan runners who dominate marathons worldwide train and live in the high-altitude Rift Valley.
