Hitting the tarmac under a wan rising sun, the athletes take advantage of the cardiovascular benefits from training at an altitude of 2,500 metres (8,200ft), which boosts oxygen-carrying red blood cells. There are dozens of similar camps up and down the Rift Valley, and they have churned out some of the best distance runners the world has ever seen. (Photo by FRANCK FIFE / AFP)
