Latest Post: Running with Kenyans

While we were in Kilgoris we hosted a sports day for the local community. While it is common knowledge that Kenyans can run, seeing really is believing. The talent and athleticism on display was nothing short of amazing.

We also took about 50 soccer balls that we were able to give away to the local schools and teams. These were quite an upgrade from the local footballs – literally balls made out of wound up plastic grocery bags.
