Zane Robertson back in Kenya?

He was in Ethiopia but he got injured about 2-3 months ago and it seems since then he has been back in Kenya. Anyone know what happened to Jake?

I also was able to scroll more of Zane's twitter feed and he is building a Kenyan shack himself to live in on his new property. So, looks like Korir finally talked him into staying permanently.

Good timing on asking about Jake... He's trying sub 60 min in Lisbon Half. I have no idea where he's been training though.

Nice update on Jake, it will be interesting to see what he does. I haven't seen him race since 2014.

Hopefully he realizes soon that he's hit his ceiling and he is not a thug.

You sound like a miserable person.

Jake may have had surgery? But back in 2014 he was doing similar times to his twin brother, who has since run 27:28 on road and 59 mins for the half. So Jake is probably thinking he could come close to those times.

Pity that the naysayers never come back to admit their stupid comments...

This distresses me. But it's a free country and my countrymen are friendlier, more welcoming and more forgiving than I.

care to elaborate?

Again, my countrymen are nicer, more forgiving and not ones for grudges. I ought to work on myself, perhaps?

Looks like you are getting distressed about something that you have no control over. Live and let live.

He called out a bunch of your countrymen/women for doping - and then the IAAF did the same thing. You can't hate one without hating the other. Are you saying that the IAAF is also completely full of BS?

That's brothers are pretty awesome honestly jealous. What a ball Z attempt to go to Kenya and become a runner I've never taken that big of a risk in my life I was probably as fast as them when I was their age and certainly my parents and friends would've talked me out of going to Kenya and running.... what an adventure that must've been… And has continued to be. They certainly have exotic personalities but hell that's no reason to hate guys are pretty badass!

Unless you've broken 60 minutes in a half Marathon you shouldn't talk crap! Don't judge something you're not!

I hope they both keep crushing it ....i love the videos they make me laugh and realize how much potential is an all of us ....that we don't actually go out and materialize on.

Mark my words they've started a trend ....they'll be more people that will try this ....but only because they already did it .....being the first brothers to move to Kenya ........with what appears like not much money if any? or support? and actually pull this off is absolutely rare in this day and age.

They were not the first, nor will they be the last.

Why does this racist continue to appropriate Kenyan culture?

He's a bit of an inspiration to me.

Do you think he could be a sub 2 hour marathoner if he continues to progress? He seems crazy enough to perhaps be thinking about it.

He's only 27 and has sub 60 min under him.

Sub 2hour?

Good one.

Bekele and Kipsang kicked one of these twins's behind in great Manchester run 2016- just a reminder. Sub2 - hilarious

You could say the same for Tadese & Delisa (sp) in the Nike attempt....

RIGHTLY SAID.... You need balls and attitude to succeed at this level, and the two brothers have plenty.... unlike snowflakes around here....
