Kenyan men are on a mission to recapture the 10,000m title when the Olympic Games get underway in Tokyo, Japan, on July 23-August 8.

It is a huge task as 2015 world 10,000m silver medallist Geoffrey Kamworor and Commonwealth Games 10,000m bronze medallist Rogers Kwemoi lead the men’s hunt for the crown that has eluded the nation for 53 years.
