KENYA-ECONOMY-TOURISM-ATHLETICS
TO GO WITH AFP STORY BY AILEEN KIMUTAI
A picture taken on February 3, 2014 shows athletes training in Kenya's renowned high-altitude village of Iten, where professional runners from around the world have gathered to prepare for the 2015 Athletics World Championships in China. Olympic gold medalists, world record holders as well as the stars of tomorrow are all being drawn to the modest red-dirt Rift Valley destination, fast emerging as the go-to training destination for the world's elite runners. At its centre is the High Altitude Training Centre (HATC), set up nearly 15 years ago by runner and entrepreneur Lornah Kiplagat and a facility she hopes will one day prove to be as big a cash draw as Kenya's safaris and beaches.
