"The aim of the bubble camps is to cut down the amount of travelling by athletes back to their families from training, and reduce the risk of exposure to the still raging Covid-19 pandemic." A total of 87 Kenyan sportsmen and women have already qualified for July's Tokyo Olympics, with the number expected to increase as the new sporting season gets underway.
