It’s an interesting statistic. From 1956 to 2016, Kenya has won 103 medals at the Olympic Games in boxing, track and field events — with 42 medals from 2008, 2012 and 2016 outings.

But four schools in Elgeyo Marakwet — St Patrick’s Iten, Sing’ore Girls, Kapkenda Girls and Marakwet Boys — claim a bigger slice of the glory.
