I love running because it's the only part of the day that belongs to me.

Frame 1: Nairobi City Marathon which was my debut marathon. I walked for 7kms and still managed a sub 3:30. Frame 2: Standard Chartered Marathon. Everything went on as planned and worked for. It's just getting started...

Since last year, I’ve done 14 hikes. Our group hadn’t introduced badges when we did the first two. I did 6 hikes last year and 8 this year. Just 2 more to go before the year ends! 🥾⛰️

We had a great run🎉🎉 We aimed for 3.15 but we are grateful for 3.26🫡 We tried so much not to lose the tempo, at some point I had to tell God, ‘remember venye tulibonga’ because the legs were giving in but we held on. Was happy to meet my Uni class mate Dr. Allan Langat, a good man.

I run without gels. I hope this information adds value to the discussion.
Physiologically, your glycogen stores can become significantly depleted after about an hour of high-intensity effort. If you want to maintain your effort over the full 42.2 km, you need to start replenishing energy early in the race. That’s where gels come in.

Most of these guys selling the tickets are staff at SC. They hoard the tickets and use proxies to sell the tickets at double the price. We will stop this fraud, someday.
