Hi there,
Me and some running buddies are trying to plan a trip to either Kenya or Ethiopia to do some high altitude training, however we don't know where the best camps are. I've heard that the area around Iten offers some good training camps. I know that Kip Keino, and Lorah Kiplagat have renown training camps and accomodation for international athletes. Anyone know of any other places? Does Gebresselassie have his our training camp for runners???
Thanks,
I was just living and training in Kenya for 4 months. I started at Lornah's camp at the beginning and moved someplace cheaper later. But the location of lornahs camp is the best. The town of Iten is bustling with runner's. I suggest you do that also because they will organize everything for you, travel, food.
Ethiopia is tough. No international camps. Just go to Addis Ababa and find a place and meet runner's in the morning at national stadium and ask them where to say. Sultula just north of addis is a great place to train.
Thats a really sexy name you have Tristan.
