Day 2 of training out here in Iten, Kenya. Today we strated the day with a Hilly 8km easy run followed by a tour Iten. After a lovely lunch we attended a 45minute core workout with Elite marathon runners which certainly was challenging.

    Yours is steadily becoming one of the best running channels out there, and definitely my favourite. You manage to put the experience before your ego, and this sets you apart from other running channels that seem to be too self centred and self promotional. Keep going Ben, great to follow your journey in running.

    We often took good quality instant coffee from home to mountains when mountaineering (before kids...) but Aeropress would be luxury for sure on a training camp like this 👌

    Those 'pastry things' you referred to are called Mandazi. I can see from the vlogs so far the weather there is just as beautiful as it is here in Nrb. Have a lovely time in Iten! Also the view point is called 'Iten View Point' karibu means welcome haha
