I think the amazing part of this story is the men OUT RAN a cheetah! They ran after them for over four miles till the cheetah was tired?! Wow!
To: Daffynition
Is there any truth to the story that Nick Saban is flying to Kenya to recruit them?!

Cheetahs are designed for a sprint. Kenyans are designed for marathons (except for the one in the White Hut.)

Like most other sports, marathoning is shot through with PEDs, and the Kenyans are the worst of the cheaters. Many have been caught, men and women. Freakish times, acceleration at will at any point in the race, no hitting a wall at 20+ miles. Not even interesting to watch now.

I’m totally impressed, esp. with that they took them alive.
Good job Kenyan goat-owners!

A goat that can kill cheetahs, I’d Luke to see that goat.
Oh, never mind.

A close friend was living out west and wondered if he could run down a turbo-goat (antelope).
After all, if the Indians did it why couldn’t he?
He did - and eventually walked up to the exhausted turbo-goat, patted its head for a bit, and both took a break before going their separate ways.

We never caught up to ours. Got close though. Nice 15 mile run at elevation, too. I guess the day wasn’t hot enough.
