You would think the other parts of the world would have access to the same type of training and other benefits, but in reality they don’t. From a young age, they run and do hard labor. At an early age, Kenyans might see running as a way out of poverty and a way to help their family and tribe. Their motives are different than most other countries.
Also differing from other countries, they are built differently. They have small calves and not a lot of bulk on their bodies to weigh them down. Thus, using less energy with every stride. As well as conserving energy, they make sure they relax and recover. They also get a good amount of sleep, especially if they are specifically training to be an elite runner. They would work hard every day and when they aren’t running they would be relaxing and recovering. They also have good positives throughout life.
We run and lift every day to embody one of the key components of the Kenyan life style. While others go to museums to learn about history, games to understand strategies, or other things to do whatever, we were living like a Kenyan to help us better understand where they come from.
