Shida has been coached, for the last 9 years, by the husband & wife coaching team of Kevin & Sue O’Connor. Kevin commented:
“It was cold & raining in Nairobi, which indicates she could have gone even faster today. Shida is the most determined and dedicated athlete I have ever coached. For example, at Silver Springs Hotel’s Espace Gym (which has kindly given Shida complimentary membership), she always tries to lift heavier weights during our weight-training sessions
