GUN TO TAPE

Six decades after Kenyan athletes first competed internationally, the country prepares to send its strongest ever squad to the 2012 London Olympic Games. Leading the charge is David Rudisha, world champion and world record holder in the 800 meters and Edna Kiplagat, marathon world champion. Follow their journey as they endure gruelling training and face difficult personal battles for a chance to toe the starting line at the Olympic stadium. All in the hopes that they will return with international sport’s biggest prize: an Olympic gold medal.

Edna Kiplagat is such an amazing woman. At the age of 37, after a decade of extremely competitive, world class running at the highest level, she won the Boston Marathon in 2017. She also has 3 adopted children, 2 of whom are her late sister's and one, from her neighbor who died in childbirth. Now, she's a policewoman in her hometown and works in empowering young girls and has a foundation that works to raise awareness for breast cancer and also works in garbage management in keeping a clean environment. What a beautiful person and role model!
