A few children in Hopkinton, Massachusetts, got a special visit from some of the elite Kenyan runners who are in the state for Monday's marathon.
Those runners, as well as past Boston champions, paid a visit to the Elmwood Elementary School.
They also attended a rally inside the gymnasium and spent time in classrooms.
Wesley Korir, 2012 champion, said it's a special event.
He said, “It's amazing, I feel so much at home. You’re honored to be here. It’s just a privilege to see the amount of work these kids do to make us feel loves, it's very appreciative.”
The students spent time before the visit to learn about Kenyan culture and come up with songs to sing for the runners.
