McCoy is making her third tour of Africa after competing at the African Games in Ghana and the African Championships in Cameroon last year.
Fired up African 100m silver medallist Maia McCoy is among athletes loving the Kenya weather, having arrived early to acclimatise ahead of the Absa Kip Keino Classic on Saturday at the Ulinzi Sports Complex.
"I am so excited to be here. I came here because I have heard about the event and how fast the tracks are," said the 28-year-old McCoy.
