When the history books on Kenya are written, INEOS 1:59 and the October 12, 2019 will feature prominently. The books will talk about this landmark event and dates that exposed the many sides of Kenyans. To begin with, before October 7, not many Kenyans knew about the INEOS 1:59 challenge - most of us assumed it was just about another Kenyan running event. Kenyans are spoilt when it comes to matters running - we have come to believe that we were born to win all runs - although we occasionally let Ethiopians win.
