    Day 4 of training out here in Iten, Kenya. Today began with a 6:30 am progression run with the local kenyan athletes which on the hilly forest, dirt roads was very tough. Ended the day with a lovely easy run through the town of Iten. If you're new to the channel please leave a like and consider subscribing for more.

    Wholesome content. The kids just cruising along on their way too school gives us an insight into why the Kenyans are so elite. It's in their dna

    So cool to see the kids running 😅, I had been looking into Kenyan running culture and actually made a short YT video a couple of weeks ago about cultural aspects that influence adolescent Kenyans in becoming elite runners.

    Those children at about 1:00 were just cruising at 4:15 km pace. Probably a future champion in there somewhere.

    What an experience to be running and then to have the Kenyan school kids spontaneously join in. You should have asked for their names, you might have been running with a future Olympic or world champion distance runner lol🏃

    Love the series Ben, looks like a great experience. So far you have used music from all over the continent but not from Kenya (I think). Check out Ayub Ogada, Blinky Bill, Kato Change, Suraj, Muthoni Drummer Queen - among others!

    I moved to altitude last summer, I train daily at 7,000 -9,000ft. the most important thing is base your efforts on how they feel. your HR will behave differently, so align your efforts to perceived effort, not sea level data.

    Cheers Ben,
    Let me ask you if the trip to Kenya has improved your training skills totally.
    I mean it is worth it to go to the Camp ?
    How much better you see yourself running now after the whole experience of Kenya ?
    Thanks , George ))

    I would love to experience a Kenyan Camp, but I do not run at the paces you guys are running over there. Is there slower groups that beginners can participate?

  • @laurenmillyx

    Do they do a lot of their morning runs fasted? What is your opinion on this?

  • @georgekirkman8325
    @georgekirkman8325 Рік тому +5

    This shows why the Kenyans are class, running 7min/ miling on the way to school at 10 years old or so 😂

  • @derekpugh5457
    @derekpugh5457 Рік тому

    So …if you went on one of these running tours is 2 weeks the minimum it’s worth going on due to your body needing to get used to the altitude first ? Thank you

    They kids were wearing school uniform, had a bag flung over his shoulder and still looked like he was about to drop everyone..

  • @paulpublic2435

    Think your elevation gain will have as big an impact as the altitude. More climbing in four easy days in Kenya than in your peak week during marathon block.

    Once your marathon times consistently get into the mid-to-high 2:10s, will you be interested in pacing female elites at major events ?
    That would be so cool to see 😊

  • @nauding1035

    The only downside I can see from these Kenya trips is the amount of running. Youve gone half way round the world and are barely running an hour a day
