Herders, not hurders. Goat herders, cattle herders, sheep herders. They all come from the hills.

Bad Wiggins,
Don't get guys here started......
They come from that country that is to be found between Uganda and Somalia.
Yes, Uganda where the Kalenjin marathon medalists come from, and Somalia where that starving 10,000 guy is from.
But what do these Kenyans mean by hurdling, are they unsatisfied with steeplechase and now trying to take over the entire hurdle world?
In a stunning role reversal Kenya is now hiring them from Bahrain. True story.
East Africans can hurdle. John Akii Bua
Pool talent.
Now Kenya have some good 200/400 sprinters, the best javelin thrower of the world, and it's also developing a 4x100 team and decent high jumpers.
Kenya
Kenya.
So many Kenyan's!!! Did anyone actually confirm where they're from or is this just speculation?
Paging Sebastian Coe, we have a problem......
They're back! The slower one just got half a second faster and owned Kerron Clement
The faster one was edged by Tinsley. The slowest one is going devastated back to wherever they're from. But that's 2 in the final.

So many Kenyan's what? Speak English, boy.
Africa, I think.
What it says, BW, since you really haven't a clue (about anything?), is that the event is stagnant. Good for the Kenyans!! Ed Moses was running 47's almost 40 years ago, yet these guys are running 48's!! Hope the Kenyans win, might balance out the terrible marathon they ran the other day.
It's time to branch out into other events (Javelin anyone!!) as there is a lot of untapped talent in other areas as well in countries such as Kenya. Also says that there is a lot of poor coaching (mixed with some absolutely excellent coaching) in th US. Should be a pile of guys running consistently in the 47's in the US (Clement with his speed should be running in the 46's). As long as the National program (such as it is) doesn't really exist, then other people from better programs (not more talented athletes), will appear and usurp the American's god-ordained (Mainifest destiny?) medals in technical events.
