we just try to maintain them because we know it's hard to get any of the equipments down here for the last few months and few weeks we have been training really hard. he's a tough athlete now about the 1st steps on the what was the were not so easy. when i joined the club, this island club and i said i would, i had some friends who helped me for me. i do enjoy every minute. when i'm in the city, but my main thing, i think maybe in winning that with these by a lot of people and i just want to see the packing growing and coming to be bought in slalom. kayaking involves completing the costs of hunting gates and the fastest time possible. green gates across 12 moving down stream rate

gates must be crossed in an upstream direction. oscillates in europe, often training into the facilities without the official rivers and 5 o'clock gates . but here on this, the gone to semi and his friends make do with what they have in kenya, the as of if you minutes and infrastructure, you have the most chatted us compared to other countries. this loan get uh, so important on that is uh you have to maneuver that on the uh, green phones uh, reviews being and cable that we have like both types. so we painted them green and red. just to identify the ops team on the go see get yeah, that's our own. we own house to do a level for see if as this disposing and the equipment related obstacles went enough. the biggest challenge lies ahead for sammy guessing visa is in the capital,

nairobi we seem to have around like 1010 days before we fly out for our form of edition. uh for the couple of days we, we've not been saying we've been to night will be almost for like 3 or 4 days. dressing for going for 2 different offices looking for a visa and all that. but yesterday and today we had a chance to do a training. that's why, how this my, on my, on my face, i like what, uh and this is almost like going. but the stress of his visa sagas, seeing returns at home, piles of documents are still waiting to be submitted to the spanish and purchased embassies. a complicated process. yeah. for us to go out and participate in an event in the country. we have to get lots of documents is uh

like passports because invitations slater's our bank statements uh, premium. okay. uh they quote statements and all that stuff. i don't know why they do ask for all those documents in as an identity. you seem to have something to come back home for like you have a happy family. you have like the duties from home. you will not kind that i would we yeah. if you go out there, you're not like going and thing definitely in the let's it doesn't feel comfortable for you. yes. all those kind of questions and you're just going for for the time back home. so if i don't get a chance the on the on these events, and i'll have to wait for another like for 5. yes. it's a mall and wait for like the nic calling because somebody has good reason to be

consent of to being invited to a u. k. olympic qualifying 2015. he applied his 1st post post at great personal expense, but the british visa was never issued and his documents languished on used for another half decade. it's a problem sized by many african athletes, even at the highest levels in 2022 visa today is caused canyon spencer funding. not on yana to be left behind, while his teammates travelled ahead to the world athletics championships in the united states. the o africa recruit holder had his visa, denial reversed at the last minute and ended his 20 hour plane journey to 3 hours before his $100.00 mesa race began. hardly ideal conditions. first, supposing, superstar office like been in these athlete or d o m, i knew were even less fortunate despite being the only african to qualify for the contests hip test alone. she was never grown to the visa at all. even well,

huge business travelers, face months, long backlogs, when applying for visas at western embassies where the interview process can be cruising and invasive. so actually it's like sammy, the recurring 2 hour bus, done a to nairobi means he's at a disadvantage. so for us to get visas, we have to as, as the out of the what the and we have to go tonight will be done every day. slipping our sessions on training, somehow visit for cameras. i'm not allowed inside the embassies, so we catch up with sammy, for a tea break, as he prepares to drop off his final application for a visa to spain. yeah, it has been a long day looking for visas. i have my documents here and the already, they don't know the guy behind the desk with that he's going to approve all my documents. and i've done these before going into the m. s the and sometimes i
