The crowning of Kenya as a world champion at the just-concluded World Athletics Championships in Beijing is a feat that will be relished for years to come.
Memories of Kenya’s sporting greatness are hard to forget. The first medal in the Commonwealth Games by Seraphino Antao in 1962, followed by Kipchoge Keino’s gold medal in 1966.
