Ethiopia is crazy about runners, mainly
because the country has had great success at the international level
in the sport. It's not uncommon to see broadcasts of wins from four
Summer Olympics ago and when these past summer Olympics were going on
ETV only broadcast the running events. A big shame for someone who loves watching the gymnastics and horse events.
Most of the runners who do well come
form Bekoji, a small town about two and half hours from me. Close to
the mountains, it's cold there. Very cold, but it still is home to
many runners for training. That, and the athletic compound in
Assella.

It's those long legs. I'll bet I would have to run just to keep in walking step with them.
