Paperback / softback. New. Little is known about the pioneer generation of women who paved the way for Kenyaâ€™s reputation as an international powerhouse in womenâ€™s track and field. Michelle Sikes details the triumphs and challenges these women faced, from the advent of Kenyaâ€™s athletics program in the colonial era to the professionalization of running in the 1980s and 1990s.
