I Found Kenya's Running Legends 🇰🇪 vA 89

I ride from Nakuru to Marigat, in Kenya, in Africa.
First, I have to escape an ambush from journalists, and then, I enjoy a lovely day on the Kenyan roads, meeting lovely runners on the way, and having some fun after arriving in Marigat.

I don't remember if I said it in the video: The journalists are not to blame for my last minute change of plan, I should have told them that I cannot or don't want to answer the question regarding where I am going, but I naively answered honestly, making that I had to change my plans, probably for the better, as the road leading to Kabarnet and Iten is awesome. Anyway, please, don't blame the journalists for that. They were very nice to me, and I had to change my plans only because of my own lack of thinking when answering their questions.

[@BecauseofJesusiliveandyoulive]

Ok no problem,we were okay with that though our audience lost some trust in us😊

I hope you will attain your highest wishes and that you will never give up the hardest choices and works. That is a blessing from us the Meru people of Kenya. Literally translated. But also personally I hope your country is better of right now and will only get much better in the future on it's way to be the best. please say hi to your family, friends and all that care. Thanks.

In Ethiopian its bulk cushites with a small nilotic minority in the omo valley. In Kenya you first met cushites (who also live in Eritrea, Somalia Djibouti and Ethiopia) then a few nilotes the Samburu. Then Bantus(who are also the majority in East Central and Southern African countries)south of Isiolo all the way to Nakuru. In Baringo you are in predominantly Nilotes land that extends to South Sudan and beyond.
