The county is renowned worldwide in the sporting world for producing world record holders, world champions, Olympic Champions, diamond league winners and winners of World major marathons and other athletic competitions. In addition, the high altitude in highland ecological zones and terrains, are ideal for mild, long distance and marathon athletics training. These have endeared professional, elite and recreational athletes to pitch camp in the county for training in preparation for national and international events. To harness this unique potential, the CIDP 2018-2023 has planned for national and international mass sports and competitive sports events that will be implemented through collaborative approaches, adequate marketing and events packaging to leverage on sports tourism. In addition, extreme sports (Paragliding and Roller skating), adventure and recreation sports potentials will be exploited to enhance County competitiveness
