Barnaba Korir, the Sirikwa Classic Cross-country race director, has urged fans to flood the Lobo village on Saturday and cheer on their favourite athletes as they toe the line.
The former All-African Games champion noted that the Paris Olympic Games are not her priority at the moment since she has more time to prepare for them and she is focusing more on the Cross-country because it’s closer.
