There were easily thousands of people here coming to pay their last respects to somebody they describe as humble, who was willing to help members of the community and who inspired many children to take up athletics.

Earlier, we heard from paris, which is the city she ran her last marathon that they are also planning to to name a Sports Venue after her. Her death, atjust 33, has shocked many members of this community. She is the third athlete to die as a result of Domestic Violence in kenya, where she lived in just three years, and therefore this death has cast a spotlight on an endemic issue in the country. And those conversations are going on here today. Fellow athletes are wearing black T Shirts with the inscription, say no to gender based violence.
