So kenya a small East African country places 3rd over countries in WC with good facilities like GERMANY, GB, RUSSIA, FRANCE, AND SOUTH AFRICA.
what do you think?
good work ethic
healthy people (no influence of major fast food chains, etc)
minimally distracted culture (less: xbox, internet, reality tv, drugs, gangs, other professional sports, etc)
geographically advantageous for training
at the same time, usa and jamaica topped the medal counts, and usa and jamaica have a lot of socioeconomic and other demographic differences. it's kind of odd to see these three teams at the top of the medal count, if you have no prior knowledge of their athletes and where they come from:
USA
Jamaica
Kenya
obviously, when someone like myself reads those names, i think of the popular sprinters, distance runners, and other t&f athletes popular in those countries. i guess the cool thing is USA is one of the top deveoped countries as far as well-roundedness in athletics. I think China got more golds last year though. Go figure. i think china owns half of the u.s. by now. that's okay because the saudi's own another 30% so we're probably holding onto like the best 20% we ever had to begin with.
