Kenyan runner Cyrus Kibet Rotich, widely known as Kibet Official, recently spoke about the challenges facing young and upcoming athletes in Kenya during an interview on Roll Pod: An Alabama Sports Show from Bama247.
In the conversation, Kibet reflected on his early training in Kapsabet, a region that has produced many of Kenyas top athletes - including Amos Kipruto, Peres Jepchirchir, and Emmanuel Wanyonyi. He described how, despite Kenyas strong running heritage, many local athletes still face obstacles that prevent them from realizing their full potential.
