Running Warehouse: Run Like a Kenyan

Running Warehouse: Run Like a Kenyan: "Okay, so you're probably not going to move to 8,000 feet of altitude and devote yourself entirely to your athletics. One hundred twenty-mile weeks might not be on next week's agenda. And, yes, it's a little late to pick your parents with an eye toward getting dealt the best genetic hand.
