The Great John Ngugi
Olympic Champion John Ngugi on overcoming obstacles, the power of athletics, and inspiring the next generation.
John Ngugi, Olympic Champion and MKTDC Goodwill Ambassador, reflects on his career, the importance of believing in yourself, and how athletics can transform lives.
I remember when I was in primary school, people told me I couldn't run. There are always people saying you can't do it, and those people have to be ignored.
John Ngugi's Olympic journey began in the highlands of Kenya, where he trained at altitude before bursting onto the world stage. His story continues to inspire the young athletes at MKTDC.
