About this book

Running with the Kenyans by Adharanand Finn is a captivating exploration of the secrets behind the world’s fastest long-distance runners. As a boy, Finn idolized the Kenyan athletes who dominated Olympic and world championships. However, those childhood dreams faded until, in his mid-thirties, he seized an opportunity: to learn from the very best.

Uprooting his family, Finn journeyed to Iten, Kenya, the running capital of the world. There, he ran alongside Olympic champions, young hopefuls, and barefoot schoolchildren. Amid the challenges of training and raising a family abroad, he discovered invaluable lessons about running and life itself.
