Kenyan athletes are prioritizing preparations for the 2025 World Athletics Championships Tokyo25 despite the ongoing African Nations Championship (Chan), which has made primary training facilities in Nairobi inaccessible. Elite athletes will train at high-altitude venues like Kipchoge Keino Stadium in Eldoret City.

• Peres Jepchirchir (women's marathon Olympic gold medalist) and Faith Kipyegon (women’s 1500m Olympic gold medalist) are among the key athletes returning to Tokyo.
• The World Athletics Championships will be held from September 13-21.
• Athletics Kenya (AK) president Jack Tuwei confirmed the shift in training locations due to the Chan tournament, which runs until August 30.
