Congratulations to Kenya

Our flag looks marvelous. Especially when we’re winning.

Does Athletics Kenya or Nike sell track gear ?

We would have won every medal on offer if shithole Nigeria hadn’t demoralized our athletes by forcing them to sleep on the airport floor due to their poor planning.

Well done to the team; ile imenishangaza sana is the high jump gold. AK huwa useless sana when it comes to developing the field events

Was just an excuse. Kwani kuna kitu wangeshinda?

16

I was wondering where they are? What happened to kina Almaz Ayana, Genzebe Dibaba, Yomif Kejelcha etc?
Maybe they had a pay dispute and refused to participate.
