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