About this episode

Live from the Bahamas we have Ferdinand Omanyala, the Kenyan Sprinter and African Record holder in the 100M. Quick to remind Justin that he was in the 9.77 race. We talk about how he pioneered sprinting in Kenya, the transition from rugby to sprinting. Looking up to Simbine, and now building the blueprint for future sprinters in the continent. Plus, his training regiment and why it's not the traditional way of training. Did you know he is a police officer?
