Summary
 After years of watching Kenyan athletes win the world's biggest races, Adharanand Finn set out to discover just what it was that made them so fast - and to see if he could keep up. Packing up his life he moved from Devon to Iten, in Kenya, to eat with, interview, sleep beside and - most importantly – run with, some of the greatest runners in the world. In the distance rests his dream, to join the best of the Kenyan athletes in an epic first marathon across the Kenyan plains.©2012 Adharanand Finn (P)2012 W F Howes Ltd Adventure Travel Running & Jogging Sports Travel Writing & Commentary Inspiring

This is everything I want from a book about running, and from a book about travel and culture.

Inspiring, entertaining, informative.

Would you listen to Running with the Kenyans again? Why?

I'm not a runner but I enjoy travel books. You don't need to be a runner to enjoy this book, but I'm sure it would be an advantage.

The book was somewhat repetitive; could have done with a bit more editing. I enjoyed the races but would have liked a bit more about living in Kenya.

Great narration

I learned a lot as a runner, but most of all loved the description of what it was like to run with Kenyans in Kenya. Sad for the story to end.

Loved it!
