What an experience to be running and then to have the Kenyan school kids spontaneously join in. You should have asked for their names, you might have been running with a future Olympic or world champion distance runner lol🏃
So cool to see the kids running 😅, I had been looking into Kenyan running culture and actually made a short YT video a couple of weeks ago about cultural aspects that influence adolescent Kenyans in becoming elite runners.
Love the series Ben, looks like a great experience. So far you have used music from all over the continent but not from Kenya (I think). Check out Ayub Ogada, Blinky Bill, Kato Change, Suraj, Muthoni Drummer Queen - among others!
What an amazing experience, running along with the school children like that. Did everyone do that run fasted? Really enjoying these vlogs… I really want to go!
I moved to altitude last summer, I train daily at 7,000 -9,000ft. the most important thing is base your efforts on how they feel. your HR will behave differently, so align your efforts to perceived effort, not sea level data.
Cheers Ben, Let me ask you if the trip to Kenya has improved your training skills totally. I mean it is worth it to go to the Camp ? How much better you see yourself running now after the whole experience of Kenya ? Thanks , George ))
I would love to experience a Kenyan Camp, but I do not run at the paces you guys are running over there. Is there slower groups that beginners can participate?
So …if you went on one of these running tours is 2 weeks the minimum it’s worth going on due to your body needing to get used to the altitude first ? Thank you
Think your elevation gain will have as big an impact as the altitude. More climbing in four easy days in Kenya than in your peak week during marathon block.
Once your marathon times consistently get into the mid-to-high 2:10s, will you be interested in pacing female elites at major events ? That would be so cool to see 😊

loved seeing the kids just cruising. deep insight into the culture and history of world class running there, in just a short and fun clip. brilliant!
How you are keeping up this class content from Kenya, every day, I’ll never know! Class as usual!
Wholesome content. The kids just cruising along on their way too school gives us an insight into why the Kenyans are so elite. It's in their dna
Those children at about 1:00 were just cruising at 4:15 km pace. Probably a future champion in there somewhere.

Keep up the videos Ben - this Kenya experience looks amazing. (you also spelt Brutal wrong in the title :D)

Its not a cultural aspect its a disadvantage [ no school bus] that they are turning it into an advanced [future elite athlete]
Pace 4:15 per km... kids are still running with them.
waiting for this for the last hour

Living the dream Ben! How exciting for you. Love seeing your experiences and how the locals embrace running.
❤ how the children are ticking over, school uniform, bags & all 👌🏽😎👌🏽
Loving the series Ben. Thanks for taking us along for the ride

Loving this series already, watch it after my afternoon run is finished. Well done Ben!

Absolutely loving this Ben , a great insight :)
Loving this content Ben. Keep it up and have a great time out there 👍
Loving this series Ben, don’t know much about Kenya but from watching this it looks incredible
Really enjoying the content from Kenya.
What an amazing experience, running along with the school children like that. Did everyone do that run fasted? Really enjoying these vlogs… I really want to go!
Thanks for keeping up the daily vlog. I’m really enjoying the details - looks like good healthy nosh, no pizzas & pastries 😅!
Having got into running a little under a year ago, this experience is so appealing! Looks amazing!!
Loving the regular uploads

Really enjoying this series
keep it up ben love you
Wait until you try the Fartlek Tuesday ….
I was there for 6weeks on my own there and even met Brother Colm, Rudisha and Kipsang!
Love these videos !! You’ve got me tempted to go, keep up the great content
Great update! Can’t wait to see what the fartlek is like
Nice Kenya 🇰🇪 t shirt 👍🏻
Cheers Ben,
Let me ask you if the trip to Kenya has improved your training skills totally.
I mean it is worth it to go to the Camp ?
How much better you see yourself running now after the whole experience of Kenya ?
Thanks , George ))
I would love to experience a Kenyan Camp, but I do not run at the paces you guys are running over there. Is there slower groups that beginners can participate?
Those kids made it look too easy. 😂
Great vid Ben! What brands do prescription sunglasses?
First triple combo
Do they do a lot of their morning runs fasted? What is your opinion on this?
So …if you went on one of these running tours is 2 weeks the minimum it’s worth going on due to your body needing to get used to the altitude first ? Thank you
yeah
Kids easily running at 4.15 pace,old guy easily running at 3.40 pace,I’ve got some serious thinking to do.
This shows why the Kenyans are class, running 7min/ miling on the way to school at 10 years old or so 😂
Those kids are going to be running sub-2 hour marathons.
Are those sunglasses with prescription?
Think your elevation gain will have as big an impact as the altitude. More climbing in four easy days in Kenya than in your peak week during marathon block.
Those kids would drop me anyday 😂
Ben haujajifunza hata kiswahili kidogo??
Once your marathon times consistently get into the mid-to-high 2:10s, will you be interested in pacing female elites at major events ?
That would be so cool to see 😊
The record is 2:14:04 and improving almost each year.
Ben Is Burnt
Do the Kenyans avoid roads and just run on soft surfaces?
Most roads in kenya have soft surfaces.
Not to be that guy but you spelled brutal wrong in the title dude. Enjoying the series ✌🏼
They kids were wearing school uniform, had a bag flung over his shoulder and still looked like he was about to drop everyone..
Kenyan Kids are built difrent. Running 4:15/kms on the way to school😅
At altitude..
They are raised differently.
👌👍
Those kids are the Kipchoge's of tommorow.
Kids and aged people run easily 💪
Childrens run to school at 4,15 and easy 🤭
Gotta hate them BURTAL runs!
and brutal?
The only downside I can see from these Kenya trips is the amount of running. Youve gone half way round the world and are barely running an hour a day
you are getting red day after day hahaha
unreal those kids running 4.15 pace at that age in uniform lmfao
Wildlife..... Then proceeds to show us a sheep😂😂
Burtal or Brutal 😂
