After ruing the missed opportunities in the gold haul presented by gymnastics and swimming at the Rio Olympics and the bad news of the last one week, there was something to celebrate about as Kenya's flag was hoisted and the rendition of the national anthem rent the air in the Maracana Stadium on Sunday night.
Kenya is proud of Jemima Sumgong for winning gold in the women's 42-km race, Vivian Cheruiyot, Paul Tanui and Hyvin Jepkemoi for winning silver in the 10,000m and 3,000m steeplechase respectively. We look forward to the heroics of Ezekiel Kemboi, Asbel Kiprop, Julius Yego and David Rudisha.
