The United States of America-based Africa 800m silver medallist Emmanuel Korir is disappointed to be locked up in foreign land due to the coronavirus pandemic. Korir observed that he is unable to train at all, unlike his Kenyan counterparts who can do individual training following the closure of camps. Luckily, back home in Kenya, I could run in the forest alone or conduct some training on my own unlike here. Life is at its worst but I have to try my best to survive,” said Korir. “We are allowed to have enough stock for about two weeks but one can still replenish whenever provisions run out,” he added.
