Uganda Athletes

I was reading Saturday's papers, The Saturday Vision and The Saturday Monitor and went through the list of athletes that are competing in the current IAAF world cross country competitions taking place in Uganda currently.

There are 28 athletes representing Uganda.

Men:

1. Titus Kwemoi
2. Victor Kiplangat
3. Elisha Chemutai
4. Kevin Kibet
5. Mathew Chekwurui
6. Jacob Kiplimo
7. Joshua Cheptegei
8. Phillip Kipyeko
9. Abdallah Mande
10. Timothy Toroitich
11. Stephen Kiprotich
12. Stephen Kissa
13. Geoffrey Ruto
14. Ronald Musagala

Women:

1. Peruth Chemutai
2. Esther Chekwemoi
3. Janat Chemusto
4. Stella Chesang
5. Adha Munguleya
6. Scallet Chemos
7. Mercyline Chelangat
8. Rachael Zena Chebet
9. Doreen Chemutai
10. Emily Chebet
11. Winnie Nanyondo
12. Dorcus Ajok
13. Stella Chesang
14. Doreen Chesang

Apart from 2 or 3 names, it seems to me they all come from the same clan!

I also noted that KCCA, Uganda police force and Prisons have many athletes, some of who are aged only 15 years!
