Camp Recap – August 2019 Kenya Experience Original
Our Kenya Experience Original camps always bring together enthusiastic runners from all over the world and this camp was no different as 13 guests from 8 different countries joined us to train with professional coaches and experience the famous running culture here in Iten. Mixed weather conditions at the beginning of the two weeks meant we had to be adaptive with training but that didn’t stop us from getting a real taste of Kenyan style running.
Camp Recap – Westlake Boys School Private Camp
14 high school cross country and distance track boys from Westlake School joined us for a private Kenya Experience camp in Iten to get a taste of Kenyan style running, train with professional coaches and to see some of the greatest runners in the world at work. We love working with Westlake School and this was the third time we have hosted them for a 10 day running camp.
