Why are you people so slow?
He might only run 6 days a week which many Kenyans do.

He mentions being around 140k /week (~87mpw), but he also says he is occasionally training three times a day. Do you know if he is counting all of his running and jogging in that mileage total or disregarding some?
The third session is supposedly just 20-30min jog, so that might only be 2-4 miles I suppose (given that Kenyans are known to truthfully jog). But if he's only running about 20k a day, on 3 runs, that works out to 4-5 miles a run ... I just would be very surprised to hear that a 26:46 runner often has days where his longest session is about 4 miles.

We don't have the same access to EPO as Kenyans do.

El Keniano…….I also thought Rhonex is the coming superstar of longdistance running…...but I`m not so sure anymore after the Nationals and the World Champs. It doesn`t look to function with his coaches ( Yes , I know! One of them is an Olympic Gold medal coach.....but so far it doesn`t seem to click ). But maybe it `s like that he is not as good at XC. Had been very interesting to coach him and I`m already familiar with coaching a runner that former was coached by his present coach. Just guess what happened when I took over.

I coached another Kenyan guy a couple of months, an elite marathoner that used to train 3 times per day. I changed his routine to twice a day and one day total rest. He ran then faster than ever before both at half and marathon.
His first name sounds something you'd hear about in a drug commercial
"If you’ve struggled with (insert ailment here) before. If you’ve tried other medications and nothing seems to help. Now there’s Rhonex.
Independent studies have shown that Rhonex's unique properties stimulate the brain’s neurotransmitters more gently than the typical medicine. Several study participants reporting relief of all symptoms within as little as two weeks.
You deserve to feel the sunshine, to feel present in the moment, to have energy – to be yourself again. You deserve an alternative when nothing else has worked.
Though users of this medication experience less side effects than with other common medicines, side effects may still include pink eye, hang nail, flu, pneumounia, diarreah, death, dry mouth, blurry vision, itchiness, temporary confusion, temporary euphoria, and temporary increase in anxiety while the body normalizes the medication."

The first thing I came to think about when I saw his name was ROLEX ! Real quality watch.
