2727809, Kenyan and Ethiopians are not ULTRA distance runners Posted by allStah, Thu Dec-17-20 02:47 PM
They don’t run for HOURS and DAYS.
Eastern Africans are top distance runners, and even though its their main sport. It’s not a way of life for their culture. Eastern African runners get selected or run to feed their families, and they don’t have 80 and 90 year older runners
With the Tarahumara the sport and money came later. It’s their way of life and most of the culture does it. It’s a tradition that has nothing to do with money.
Eastern Africans retire in their 40s, get fat, and raise their families and look after their businesses. They never run again after their prime.
