42 HOUSE
Supporting Hopeful Talents, Progressing the Whole Sport of Running
WHERE TALENT GROWS
We push running forward by supporting talented athletes at 42 House in Iten, Kenya. 42 House is a place to train, learn, and share.
At KIPRUN, running is more than performance. It shapes daily life, brings joy, and builds community. We created 42 House to live these values and help the sport grow. Here, athletes follow a path of growth and discovery. They develop as runners and as people, and keep running – no matter what.
SPORT + EDUCATION = A BRIGHT FUTURE
Not every talented athlete can become a star runner. That’s why it’s so important for us to work to achieve success in running and beyond. This holistic project, combining athletics, education and social support, prepares the resident athletes for their future careers and their whole lives. At 42 House, we’re always looking for the new talent of tomorrow. That’s why, each year, we reach out to hundreds of teenage students in Iten and Cherangani to offer a first essential stepping stone that young people can use to build their future.
After their school years, the most promising athletes can embark on a transition into the professional world over 2 years. They will learn what life in top-flight athletics looks like and how to manage a running career. Some of them might join 42 House, while others might engage in further vocational opportunities through KIPRUN and Decathlon. Either way, we do everything in our power to keep them running and growing.
