I thought I remember reading that Kennedy trained in Kenya with Daniel Komen and a group of Kenyans. If Kennedy could go over there to train why can't the top American go for one race?

No. He trained with them occassionally in Europe. He also did some training stints in Australia (or maybe it was New Zealand). As far as I know, he never did any extended training in Kenya, or at any high altitude, for that matter.
Going to Mombasa to race isn't the same as going to Iten to train. Besides, Kennedy only went to Kenya once, for a short time. Most of the training he did with Kenyans was in England, and one winter in Australia.
For some reason, most people think that I trained in Kenya. I think there was an article years ago that incorrectly said this. In the '90s, I trained with the Kenyans extensively but never in Kenya or at altitude. In Melbourne, Palo Alto, and London mostly. I spent a few weeks in Albuquerque in February 2003 then did three stints in Boulder this year.
