RUNNING WEEK: POST #1 If you look at the major marathons in 2013, in Berlin the top five finisher in the mens race were Kenyan and three of the first five women are. In Chicago the first four men were Kenyan, as well the first two women. In New York, both winners were Kenyan. Why!? There are two major reasons: The first is down to hailing from a place at an extremely low altitude that has a very hot and dry climate. Because of this they have the evolutionary adaptation of long limbs proportional to their body size. Its an adaptation for cooling, because if you increase the surface area compared to the volume, it allow more heat to escape. The second reason will be for tomorrow... ;) https://youtube/watch?v=yNuzXW1FTXQ
