“The javelin runaway has been adjusted from 32m to 36m even though 35m is the standard measurement,” said Tanui.
Sprinter Boniface Mweresa has predicted that Saturday’s Absa Kip Keino Classic is likely to register some very fast times because to the venue -- Ulinzi Sports Complex.
Mweresa, a 31-year-old veteran who has run in virtually every corner of Kenya, observed that, Ulinzi Sports Complex is usually warmer in the afternoon compared to such venue as Moi International Sports Centre (MISC), Kasarani and the Nyayo National Stadium.
