Why africa is the best place to train , no place in US looks like this

No they arent

Ummmm,

two no-name African runners on the heavy side, one with dreads running on a dirt road?

every state in America has roads like this,

OP needs to get out and explore…

Since the world has discovered Africa, everybody been fascinated or even obsessed with the continent! Be yourselves and leave us alone😂

So, the only two countries in the entire world are Africa and the United States? My God man, have you never been to South America? We live in Quito at 9000 feet. It’s beautiful and wonderful, and everyone is so nice. You simply have no idea how big the world is. Please leave your moms basement and grow TF up.

Many places in the US look like this

Wrong. Here is a comprehensive list of countries in the world:

1. The United States of America
2. Africa
3. Mexico
4. China
5. England
6. Europe
7. Muslims
8. Chicago
9. Israel

Just saying, Here's a pretty good dirt road

Become a boss, stop crying smh

Most of us don't think about Africa at all. And that's as someone who has some ancestry from over that way.

People keep mentioning the high desert southwest looks like Kenya as someone who has been to Kenya and spent many months in the desert southwest... There are at best 3 months a year with similar weather to Kenya the rest of the year it is hotter or colder. Being on the equator at altitude means you have 2 seasons: rainy and dry and the temp is basically the same in both. The highs are much lower the Colorado/utah/New Mexico/az and the lows never get below freezing no where in the US at altitude is like that (except on a steep mountain in HI)

So you would have to move every season then

Lies. Everybody knows that only white people post on letsrun.

It always cracks me up when I read comments from people that clearly have not been to Kenya, or likely nowhere out of their immediate region, but are quick to pass judgement. Here's a few things for fun, from the Meru side of Mt Kenya: 1) That road is an amazing dirt road, very well maintained. Most are very rough, rocky or muddy. 2) I live in a major city in the US, and 10 minutes out of town I can be on dirt roads just like this. 3) In Kenya, you don't want to run on tarmac roads. Very dangerous. Cars drive as fast as they can and the driving laws are more like suggestions. Out of the city, it's common to see citizen-built earthen speed bumps on the highway to slow down cars so their children don't get killed. 4) These are not shanty towns. Many homes are built very tiny and have tin roofs. It's common. It's about functionality, not out-doing the neighborhood. 5) Most Kenyans I have met over the years believe everyone in America is rich. I try to explain we have homeless and poor here also, and they cannot believe it is true. In many ways, they have a more relaxed and abundant lifestyle than the average middle-American who struggles to survive. 6) If you do face-plant on said roads, people there will enjoy a good laugh, and then offer to help, the same as many other places in the world.
