Běhání S Keňany - Tajemství Nejrychlejších Běžců Světa (2010) - Plot & Excerpts
Fantástica aventura la de Flynn, conviviendo con keniatas y etíopes, entrenando, viviendo, absorbiendo el estilo de vida de su gente y su cultura, intentando descifrar que es lo que los vuelve los mejores maratonistas del mundo. En su aprendizaje no solo podrá entrenar a su lado y compartir sus costumbres, sino que tendrá la oportunidad de conocer a algunos de los mas grandes campeones mundiales, ganadores de oro olímpico y carreras míticas como New York Marathon o Berlin Marathon. Un relato imperdible que hará las delicias de cualquier runner, ya sea amateur o elite. In the Olympics and world championship's between 1991 and 2009 Kenyan men won a total of ninety-three distance running medals. In that time Britain won none. And the USA three. Two of which were won by an EX-Kenyan who only switched to the USA team at the age of 30.Since then the Kenyans have been concentrating on the more lucrative world marathon circuit. In 2011 the top twenty fastest marathon times of the year were all run by Kenyans. Even more strangely all of these athletes come out of the same small running town of Iten. A place too poor for scientific modern techniques of computerised performance trackers and supplements. Englishman Adharanand finn goes to Iten to try to work out what's going on finds a chaotic mecca for running.A strange and often comical land where people know and greet each other by their marathon times (are you mark? Im mark 3hrs 4mins your looking for mark 3hrs 5mins)is on the whole an interesting and entertaining place to be.
