chasingKIMBIA Auction for Education

chasingKIMBIA Auction for Education

from chasingKIMBIA.com Video Blog on March 27, 2007
Duration: 432
chasingKIMBIA is excited to announce the Auction for Education and to formally introduce The KIMbia Foundation. Our hope is to raise awareness about the current state of education in Kenya and to offer people an opportunity to get involved. The Daily Run - "What Can I Do?" "So what do you think?" Tom asked. We were standing along a dirt road on the outskirts of Boulder, Colorado. The athletes had just breezed past us at the 20-kilometer mark. Five more to go. "They look great," I answered, assuming he was referring to the workout we were watching. "No, I mean about the project. What do you think about this whole experience?" Caught off guard by the question, I stumbled on my own words. Something about "it's been a lot of fun" and "I hope the guys run well." But now, with months of reflection behind me, I can try to verbalize it better. It had been one of the greatest experiences of my life. For the past two months I had lived with some of the greatest marathon runners in the world. I got to experience firsthand their dedication, passion, and curiosity. I listened to Charles tell me how hard it was to leave his family behind. I tried to sympathize with Ben when he told me he couldn't wait to get home to see his wife and three kids. And I tried to explain to Baba why the workers at Wal-Mart were old. It was, in a word, life-altering. (Or is that two words? I never know with the hyphen...) It certainly changed my perception of Kenyan athletes. I now realize that they aren't superhuman running machines who simply show up on race day and win. They train hard. Man, do they train hard. They make sacrifices that many athletes would never consider. They win and they lose. They struggle with loneliness, homesickness, financial stress, and injury. Just like the rest of us. This, I thought at the time, was an experience that could never be topped. "I ask because I wanted to see if you'd be interested in doing it again next year from Kenya," Tom continued as we hopped back into Dieter's car. We were three weeks away from the 2006 Chicago Marathon. I was just getting my feet wet with this whole blogumentary thing and had my own doubts about being able to keep up the pace for the remaining weeks of this season. But I didn't hesitate. "Yea, that sounds fun." So elegant, I know... Fast forward to today. Only three weeks remain in our second season and without a doubt my experience from season one has been topped. Visiting Kenya wasn't even on my radar last year. Now I'll be making regular trips to the country I once knew only for distance running. It is a land of contradiction. Where there's poverty, there's happiness. People who need, want to give. Beautiful vistas ruined by large quantities of litter. A push for unity, but resistance to abandon tribal allegiances. But perhaps the biggest paradox: - 10,000 teachers enter the workforce each year, but only 3,000 jobs are available. - Only 24% of Kenyan children attend high school. In other words, there are teachers who want to teach and children who want to learn, but their paths diverge. When Tom asked me to travel to Kenya for season two of chasingKIMBIA, I didn't hesitate. What running fan wouldn't want the opportunity to visit the greatest distance running nation in the world? I had my reservations about safety and thought about pulling out when I saw the laundry list of vaccinations required. But in the end, I boarded a plane from Boston to Nairobi with one goal - to capture distance running on the clay roads of Iten. To say that I was shocked when we arrived would be an gross understatement. The poverty and living conditions were like nothing I had ever experienced. Call me sheltered or insular, but the truth is that my upbringing simply never exposed me to conditions like that. People lived in mud huts and went to the bathroom through a hole in the ground. The floor of my hotel room was made out of concrete for crying out loud. It was textbook culture shock. But as the days passed, I paid less attention to my own feelings of uncomfortableness and more attention to my surroundings. We met so many people with so many interesting stories. It was hard to keep my head straight. We visited the athletes at their homes, away from the training camp and away from running. We played with their kids and walked their farms. I met the wife and three kids that Ben couldn't wait to see. And I understood why. I slept in the house that Charles found so hard to leave. And I understood why. We visited schools with the most beautiful children, dressed in colorful school uniforms. We talked to the teachers, who told us that the kids were motivated, disciplined, and bright. But then we learned that most of them won't finish high school. Their families can't afford the fees. I met Cynderella, Edith and a slew of other children whose education is in doubt. Here we take education for granted. In Kenya they consider it hope. I met a young man named Gideon at the lookout 200 meters from our hotel. I was recovering from my malaria scare and thought a walk outside would help. I spent an hour sitting on a rock, overlooking the Rift Valley, talking to this young unemployed teacher. He had finished his teacher training a year early and was still searching for a job. He knew more about American current events than I probably did. He asked about Hilary versus Barack. He was pulling for Barack since his father was Kenyan. He asked if there were opportunities to teach in America. "It's competitive, but there are certainly opportunities," I told him. He shook his head as tears formed in the corners of his eyes. "I wish I could go there," he whispered. As we were leaving after a hard workout at the track, Godfrey stopped the car to talk to a friend standing along the dirt road leaving Kamariny Stadium. As they laughed and joked in Swahili, a woman approached the car and asked Godfrey for a ride into town. "Of course," he said. "Jump in." The woman had the most terrible cough, but would politely turn to us in the back seat and smile shyly. "I'm sorry," she would say. Godfrey and her carried on a conversation in Swahili for most of the drive. She thanked us and apologized again when we let her off near the post office. "That's so sad," Godfrey said after she shut the door. "She is dying of AIDS and was just diagnosed with cancer. She has two young boys and can't afford to send them to school anymore. The headmaster sent them home because their fees weren't paid." I turned back and saw this young, but frail woman walking across the street. I wanted to jump out of the car and just grab her. Make it better. But what could I do? Running is what brought me to Kenya. Not education, not poverty, and not AIDS. But I've found out that you can't immerse yourself in Kenyan running without being exposed to the others. Throughout the trip, I found myself repeatedly asking, "What can I do?" Brother Colm put it best. "You can't aim to change the world overnight. I have seen more big ideas fall through the cracks in my 31 years here. People come, they get excited, they conceive a grand plan," he shakes his head and takes a deep breath. "But nothing gets done. If you really want to help, think small." Then his eyes widened as he leaned in towards me. It's what he does any time he's talking about something for which he has great passion. He used sharp hand gestures to make his point. "Small money for significant change." What can I do? Now I had an answer. Start small and reach out to the people who are already intimately involved in this journey. Perhaps it will spread from there. There are so many worthy causes out there, it's often hard to sort through the clutter. I've found in my own experience that in the end I give to those charities that affect me personally. Like my best friend's mother who died of ovarian cancer or my uncle who is living with AIDS. Sure, I could probably do more and give more, but if everyone helped support causes that touched them on a personal level, we'd make great strides towards curing disease, ending poverty, improving education, and generally helping those less fortunate than us. But I'm also a realist. We can't save the world overnight and we won't cure Kenya's education problems through this website. But as Brother Colm said, "Small money for significant change." We, as the running community, can make a difference. We can make significant change. So with that said, we're excited to announce the Auction for Education and to formally introduce The KIMbia Foundation. The Auction for Education Up for bid is a custom pair of KIMbia racing flats signed by Ben Maiyo and Stephen "Baba" Kiogora. This New Balance RC205 racing flat has been customized specifically for the KIMbia athletes. On the front is the KIMbia Athletics logo and on the back is the Kenyan shield. This is the same shoe that Ben and Baba will wear during the 2007 Boston Marathon. The auction has officially opened with a starting bid of $100. It will close at 9:00AM EST on April 7th. 100% of the winning bid will go to support one of the three projects listed below. Click here for more information or click here to go directly to the auction. The KIMbia Foundation The sole purpose of the KIMbia Foundation is to use its position in the world of athletics to support education in Kenya. Over the last two years the Foundation has helped many children and several school-realted projects. Many in the running community have given both their time and financial support to these causes, including Victah Sailer, Uta Pippig, and the students at Concord-Carlisle Elementary School in Massachusetts. For the last two years, the second grade class has raised money for Silgich Hill Academy and maintains a great letter exchange program with the students there. After our visit this year, we're hoping to gather even more support from the running community. Based on our trip and the experiences that touched us, we've created these three programs: 1. Sponsor a Student 2. Singore Girls Track Rehabilitation 3. Brother Colm's HIV/AIDS Training Program at Tambach Teacher's College What can you do? Let's find out --- The Foundation is a 501(c)(3) organization and thanks to several volunteers, we're able to pass along 100% of all contributions. If you have any questions or concerns, please email us. Thanks in advance for your generosity. And also a big thank you to the volunteers who have helped us put this together, especially Mike Horn who has worked tirelessly on this project. --- chasingKIMBIA.com is a blogumentary documenting the lifestyle and training of some of the world's best marathon runners.

chasingKIMBIA episode #15 - "Rain"

chasingKIMBIA episode #15 - "Rain"

from chasingKIMBIA.com Video Blog on March 18, 2007
Duration: 465
Show Notes: - Big news from the weekend: Laban Kipkemboi (co-host of the Cribs video) finished 3rd at the Dong-A Seoul Marathon in 2:08:38. It was a great start to the Spring season and will certainly give the other guys confidence going into their races. Tom and Dieter were in Seoul and sent me this message shortly after the race: Laban ran a smart race, always hanging at the back of the lead group, which by 30K was down to 4. At about 34, Laban went to the front for about 1k, but then settled in behind the others (Bong-Ju lee, Paul Kirui-2nd 2006 Rotterdam and another Kenyan guy-Edwin Komen). At 36.5k Kirui pushed very hard and dropped everyone. Laban was in 4th and looked pretty good, but was struggling a bit with the significant increase in pace. At about 38k he went into 3rd and was gaining on Lee, but just as Lee put his head down and really pushed to catch Kirui. He eventually passed him at 40.5k. Laban rallied a bit and looked to hav e a good shot at passing Kirui, but ended up 3rd. Congratulations to Laban - a podium finish. - Today's video is a sampling of footage from a rainy spell we had in Iten. The weather was beautiful for our entire trip, except for on 4-day stretch where it rained every single day. Godfrey kept calling it an el nino, which I believe is what they call the rainy season. Either way, it was pretty miserable and almost impossible to run at certain times. The dirt or clay from the roads sticks to the bottom of your shoes making them really heavy. And in certain areas the puddles were the width of the entire road. We got stuck in the car a few times... - There are some interesting shots in this episode. In the first scene you can hear the BBC playing on the radio. The little boy who waves to the camera actually ran with the group for about 400 meters. He must be, what, six years old? In the shots where the guys are steaming...they're not in a sauna. They're sitting under the stands at Kamariny Stadium. I really like that footage. There's a shot where Yuda hands off a pile of jackets to the truck. Normally the guys just drop their jackets along the road and we pick them up, but because the roads were so muddy, Yuda had to hand them over to the truck. The shots on the track where I'm running alongside or behind the guys, I'm actually on a bike. Of course, I could barely keep up, but I blame it on flat tires. In the comeback, Godfrey is recounting a story about Dieter. Police sit on the main road into Iten and often pull people over. To get on their good side, Dieter gave them some t-shirts one day. A day later he and Godfrey got pulled over for having too many guys in the car...but it turns out the guy just wanted a ride into town. Somehow he squeezed into the back. - Today's podsafe music includes "When You" by The Moot, "Runaway" by The Adam Woodall Band, and "Gonna Rain Tonight" by Damon Timm.

chasingKIMBIA episode #11 - "kenya"

from chasingKIMBIA.com Video Blog on March 08, 2007
Duration: 282
Show Notes: - So earlier this week I received an email from Nich Haber, a musician and fan of chasingKIMBIA. He told me about a song called "Kenya" that he and Mac Randall wrote in honor of Paul Tergat breaking the marathon World Record. I gave it a listen over on MySpace and realized that it would be perfect for one of the cK Video Blog episodes. So, thanks to Nich, I hope you enjoy "Kenya" performed by The Grand Old Party. - After Ellis' Daily Run yesterday I wanted to do a montage of sorts with the workouts he's done with the guys here. Most of the footage comes from a 15x300m workout at Kamariny Track and a hard, but muddy 10K on the roads of Iten. - Before the start of the 10K, Ellis told us that he planned to go 5K. So Tom started joking with him that he had to run a certain time or else we would kick him out of the camp. The time was 18:45. Early on it looked like no problem. 1K, 2K, 3K - Ellis was hanging on the back of the pack. But between 3K and 4K is a huge hill. That's when he started to fall off the pack. We waited at the crest of a hill at 5K. Everyone went by; no Ellis. As the watch ticked, we waited. Then, with plenty of time to spare, Ellis emerged over the crest of the hill. He made it. He got to stay in Kenya. - In the very beginning Ellis talks about how progressive the warmup was. I think that's something unique to the Kenyans, or at least the East Africans. They seem to run at both ends of the spectrum and everywhere in between. On an easy run they will go 7:00 pace or even slower. I've done several runs with them that hover closer to 8:00 pace. But then they also run 20K at sub-5:00 pace. They hit the extremes within a given training cycle, and that carries over to the warmup before a workout. It starts slow and gradually builds to the speed necessary for that particular workout. - Although many of Godfrey's stories are confirmed, I just couldn't believe the one about the Queen having her own house at the palace built by the British. But with Godfrey, who knows? To learn more visit chasingKIMBIA. --- chasingKIMBIA.com is a blogumentary documenting the lifestyle and training of some of the world's best marathon runners.

chasingKIMBIA episode #10 - "Cribs"

chasingKIMBIA episode #10 - "Cribs"

from chasingKIMBIA.com Video Blog on March 06, 2007
Duration: 566
Show Notes: - This is an admittedly poor rip-off of the MTV show, Cribs. I created some Cribs episodes during a previous project that followed college athletes. You can watch some of those old videos here, here, and here. - The "Crib" in Iten is slightly more modest than those you'd find on the MTV show, but I wanted to give everyone a sense of what the living conditions are like for the athletes. Thanks to Richard Kiplagat and Laban Kipkemboi for giving us the tour. - There's really no better place to start than the backyard. The athletes spend more waking time in the backyard than any other place. Although we've had some rain, the weather this time of year is gorgeous. Sunny and 70 almost every day. So why sit inside? - On a normal day the guys do their primary workout in the morning. As Richard says, by 10AM they're all resting in the backyard sipping chai and telling stories. I know I've said it before, but their ability to do absolutely nothing is staggering. Guys will just be in their own world, sipping tea or eating slices of bread, not thinking about anything in particular. Just watching the day go by. - Next is the kitchen. It's tiny, especially when you consider that Mama Kibett has to cook for a dozen hungry athletes every day. Although Mama Kibett primarily cooks with charcoal (known as makaa), she does have two propane burners. - A normal diet for these guys consists of: 7:00AM: Slices of bread and several cups of tea before the workout. 10:00AM: More bread and tea after the workout, as well as fresh fruit. 1:00PM: Lunch usually consists of potatoes, beans, and vegetables. 4:00PM: More tea. 7:00PM: Dinner is ugali with beef or chicken stew. The stew usually contains carrots, greens, and cilantro. Yes, cilantro. I haven't figured that one out yet, though... - There is no washing machine at the camp and I've never seen a laundromat in Kenya. Everything is washed by hand. It's back-breaking work, but you wouldn't believe how clean things get. Your shoes actually turn red from the clay, so every few days the guys have their shoes cleaned. When Mama Ngeza is done with them, they literally look like they just came out of the box. - On to the sitting room - there are two plastic tables with plastic chairs. There are also two twin beds where the athletes can nap or an athlete can sleep if there aren't enough beds elsewhere. The floors in the entire house are made out of concrete. In fact, most things are made out of concrete. It's one of the first things I noticed in Kenya, though - that the floors in most buildings and houses are made out of concrete. On the far side of the room is the treatment area where they get massage and other physical therapy. The guys have a very small television that gets 2 or 3 channels. Some of the guys have portable DVD players, so they'll watch movies on those. Oddly, WWF (or WWE, I guess) is one of the prime time shows here. There is something extremely odd and wrong, yet fascinating about a group of Kenyan distance runners watching American professional wrestling. But they seem to enjoy it... - The painting the Laban talks about was painted by a woman who stayed at the house last year. I believe she's from New Hampshire or Maine, but I don't recall. Either way, it explains why it appears to be a mzungu, and not an African. - The bedrooms are also tiny. Two athletes to a room; two small twin beds. The mattresses are made of very thin pieces of foam; not what we would consider a traditional mattress. You can see they use clotheslines to hang some of their clothing. And they take comfort in a small radio with a tape player. There aren't many CD's floating around the house...they're still listening to cassette tapes. - Ben and Baba, who are both running Boston, share the back room in the house. They're sort of the veterans of the group, so maybe they got first pick. - The drink that Ben is enjoying is Ribena, which actually comes from the UK. I never tried it, but they have it in all the stores here. I just couldn't resist the orange Fanta. - On the wall is a map of the world, painted by a former UN worker who once stayed in the house. Richard says that Kenya is the size of Texas "if I'm not wrong." - Next we head out to the front yard (or is it the back yard?) to the expansive and high tech workout facility. I think it's safe to say that, despite him saying it "plays a crucial role," Richard doesn't spend much time lifting weights. I don't know why, but this footage cracks me up. Hang on after the outro credit for the funniest clip of the whole shoot. - In the closing, Richard says that he hopes you will be cheering for KIMbia runners in the U.S. He also talks about the Boulder/Iten Training Camp sign and the quote from Dieter, "Believe me nothing comes easy." I used that as the title of this video, which was the most popluar video from last season. - Richard also mentions the sacrifice required to reach the top level of the sport. I think this video, and the project as a whole, show the sacrifices that these guys have made. I often wonder if Americans would be willing to leave home for an extended period of time to train the way these guys do. Would they share a room and live in a training-camp environment? The cultures are so different. For starters, if Ben Maiyo didn't run fast, he would most likely be a poor farmer. If Dathan Ritzenhein doesn't run fast, he has plenty of opportunities available to him. So at the heart of it, there seems to be this one main difference - that running in Kenya provides an path out of poverty. Genetics, diet, and environment all play a role in their success, but I wonder if the motivation to escape poverty isn't the strongest of all. - Music in this episode from the Podsafe Music Network: Summertime Jams by MC Statistics Ice Ice Baby Ben Folds Remix by Former Fat Boys Summertime by Brother Love Gut Bucket by James Brown Over My Head by Jeff Mallon To learn more visit chasingKIMBIA. --- chasingKIMBIA.com is a blogumentary documenting the lifestyle and training of some of the world's best marathon runners.

chasingKIMBIA episode #8 - "Every Color"

chasingKIMBIA episode #8 - "Every Color"

from chasingKIMBIA.com Video Blog on March 01, 2007
Duration: 329
Show Notes: - The colors in Iten are just spectacular. From the the orange sunrises to the bright colors of the school uniforms. Everywhere you turn there are vibrant colors - the landscape, the clothing, the food. I wanted to create a video that tried to capture that because it's so different than the color palette in the U.S. - The opening shot where we're walking up to the track is one of my most memorable Kamariny experiences. We walked to the track from our hotel to watch a workout with Brother Colm's group. When we arrived, we were mobbed by this group of schoolchildren. As you can see, they were pretty interested in the camera. - As Bob crests the hill, two of the children say, "Kuga," (coo-ga) which means "old man" in Swahili. Many of the kids in Iten call Bob Kuga. As you can hear, they also ask repeatedly, "How are you?" in their unmistakable staccato. Everywhere you go in Iten, you hear the children asking, "How are you? How are you?" Sometimes you'll hear it off in the distance - just a faint little voice - and you look over to see a young boy or girl waving from 300 meters away. I love it! It's one thing that never gets old. - After mingling with the kids on the track, we decided to have a race. Jamie and Ellis were up for the challenge, but got beat. The young boy who beat them was 13 and running barefoot. Ok, I'm sure Jamie and Ellis didn't give it 100%, but it was still impressive to watch the fluid stride of this young kid wearing his school uniform. I think we timed him in 68 about two minutes later (he wanted to do a solo effort against the clock). - Most of the footage of the guys running comes from the clay roads of Iten. The terrain is challenging for sure, but it can't hurt as bad when you're running with those views! - At about 3:00 into the video there is a shot of main street Iten. That's taken from the balcony of our hotel looking up into town. The next shot is of a woman making a mud hut. She told us that this was the 6th of 7 layers. So she has to rub that mud on there 7 different times! It's actually cow dung mixed with water and something else, which I forget. Despite the cow dung, the mud huts are really cool. They're also cheap - a high quality one only costs $200. I'm definitely going to build one at some point. - At 3:12 you get a look at my best friend in Iten. The little girl with the pigtails is so darn cute. She lives right next door to the camp so we see her everyday. There's actually a whole group of kids who live nearby who play outside in the yard all day long. Every time we walked by they would run out into the road to shake hands or slap high fives. "How are you? How are you?" Again, it never got old. - At 3:45 we pass a woman running - that's none other than Lornah Kiplagat. Godfrey yelled out the window, "C'mon Lornah. Keep up with the guys." Her response was, "Tomorrow." Ironically, the next day she did complete 23 400's around 70 seconds. The schedule called for 30, but heavy rains cut the workout short. This past weekend she won the World's Best 10K in Puerto Rico, beating Meseret Defar. KIMbia athlete Gilbert Okari won the mens race with John Yuda placing 5th. - At 4:11 is a man hand-pumping gas. That's something I've never seen. The power goes out every few days in Iten and when it does, the pumps don't work so they have to hand-pump the gas. - At the end Tom yells out the window to Laban, "I'm gonna buy you a map." Laban led the group the wrong way on one of the runs, but tried to pawn it off on Yuda. Who led who the wrong way is still up for debate. - How about that cow at the end? - Continuing with my new trend of using music from the Podsafe Music Network, I wanted to highlight the artists in this episode. The first song (after the Millis Pride intro) is from, ironically, Mangomad. The song is called "See the Light." - The second song is by Matthew Ebel. It's called "Every Color". I first heard this song on my favorite podcast over at crayonville. They use it as the introduction to their podcast. Great song. - This is definitely one of my personal favorites.

chasingKIMBIA episode #5 - "Kamariny Track"

chasingKIMBIA episode #5 - "Kamariny Track"

from chasingKIMBIA.com Video Blog on February 22, 2007
Duration: 256
Show Notes: - This was the first workout of the training cycle for the main marathon group, sans Baba, who was still in his hometown of Meru. - Kamariny (pronounced "cam-a-rin") Track is truly a remarkable place. On Monday's we're usually the only group at the track. But if you go there on a Tuesday or Thursday, especially in the Spring, it's pure chaos. There can easily be 100+ athletes working out at the same time. - The track is dirt (despite Godfrey's insistence of it's "synthetic" nature). There are stands on both straight-aways, but they're in desperate need of repair. The track is exposed on one end to the Rift Valley, which makes it windy. But the other side is well protected by a hillside. It looks as if they just dug into the hill to make a level surface. On workout days, men and kids alike line up on the hillside to watch the athletes. Some of the men were probably great athletes in their time and some of the children will certainly join the next generation of great Kenyan athletes. - One of the first things I noticed about the track is that a path is worn into the dirt from years and years of running. But what's strange is that the path sits a good 5 meters from the rail. I once asked Brother Colm how far the athletes actually ran in one lap and he said, "Oh, I'm the only one whose measured it." Then his eyes got wide and his face went still, the way it does right before he delivers a joke. "I'll tell you this, it's not 400 meters." Ironically, at the end of our workout we watched as two of his athletes, Isaac Songok and Augustine Choge, clicked off several 53-54 second 400's...or were they 408's? - In Iten there are so many athletes trying to make it. Driving around town in the early morning you see so many runners. Most in small groups; as Ellis pointed out yesterday, you rarely see a Kenyan training alone. - I used two artists for today's video. The intro music is from Millis Pride. The other song is called "Sound Scientist" by Bill from the podsafe music network.
