Kenyan athletes were treated to a gallant welcome, moments after landing at the Jomo Kenyatta International Airport (JKIA) in Nairobi on Tuesday morning after a long and fruitful week at the World Athletics Championships in London.  

The lucky Kenyans managed to finish second after United States of America (USA), with 11 medals in total.

Kenya managed to clinch five gold, two silver and four bronze medals in the tournament.

All eyes are now focussed on the Diamond League which will be held in Birmingham this Friday where Kenya’s Consenlus Kipruto (3,000m steeplechase), Hellen Obiri (5,000m), and Faith Chepng'etich (1,500) will represent the country.
