You make good points because I asked Kenyan runners today about that short course and they were not aware that. However I’m not disputing what he says because he has a lot of inside knowledge.
Interesting insight, however I would like to point out the post regarding the short course was from El Kenyano not El Keniano, and I wanted to check the validity of the comment.
Very impressive observation which I had not twigged. So it seems someone impersonating the registered version may not have the full story and his assertion may be inaccurate.

It’s just Coevett telling lies as usual and shouldn’t have been hard to spot.

That is a pity, because today I was at tea with several elite masaii runners in Kericho, including the 2:08:00 record holder of the La Rochelle marathon, and Sammy Nyokaye, a gusii, who recently transferred from Keroka to Kericho, for better training conditions. None of those guys mentioned the course being short.

I don't think he necessarily lies with intent, however I get the impression that he believes a substantial # of Kenyan runners dope, which is probably not the case, in most cases. For a large population of elite runners, only a few Kenyans have been convicted of doping. Cynics might claim they evade detection, but dozens of Kenyans travel to road races/weekly or monthly, and are presumably tested, but very few fail, which would suggest that most K runners are in fact clean.
