Kyseisessä kuvassa Lornah Kiplagat istuu hollantilaisen miehensä Pieter Langerhorstin kanssa kuin vastavihityt, vaikka ovat olleet yhdessä jo useita vuosia. Kumpikin on toista kertaa naimisissa ja kummallakin on yli 20:set pojat edellisistä avioliitoistaan. Lornahin poika Kipketer hoitaa HATC:in suurta maatilaa, jossa on 15 lehmää ja paljon kanoja sekä hedelmäpuita ja monta hehtaaria peltoa. Joten HATC on melko omavarainen ruokalan tarvitsemien tarvikkeiden osalta. Heitä kutsutaan Itenin paronittareksi ja paroniksi. HATC tarjoaa usealle kymmenelle kenialaiselle työpaikan ja lisäksi tilan tuotteita myydään myös muualle. Lornah on erittäin menestynyt juoksija. En kertaa hänen juoksusaavutuksiaan tässä suomeksi, koska voitte lukaista ne alla olevasta englanninkielisestä Lornah Kiplagatin tulosyhteenvedosta. Lornahin sisko Monica on HATC -leirikeskuksen pääemäntä ja hoitaa keskuksen kaikki hankinnat sekä valvoo keittiön ja ruokalan lisäksi toimistotöitä. Melkoiseksi keskukseksi HATC on muodostunut. Keskus tunnetaan jo ympäri maailmaa, mistä on osoituksena eri puolilta maailmaa olevat treenaajat, usea on maailman huipulta Olympia -voittajia tai maailman mestariurheilijoita tai sitten tulevia sellaisia. Voitte käydä katsomassa HATC -leirikeskusta tarkemmin kotisivuilta: http://www.lornah.com/.
HATC:iin mahtuu yöpyjiä lähes 50 samaan aikaan. Mutta tarvittaessa kuulemma hyödynnetään Itenin koulujen majoituskapasiteettia, jolloin ruokailut ja kuntosali sekä uima-allas ovat myös näiden vierailijoiden käytössä. Hyvin ammattimaiseksi homma on käynyt ja autoista päätellen myös kannattavaksi businekseksi.
Nyt voisi sanoa, että täällä hoituvat kaikki tarpeelliset asiat erittäin hyvin - suosittelen!

That same year she lowered the Dutch marathon record to 2:23.43 during the New York City Marathon. She also participated in the 2004 Summer Olympics, where she finished 5th in the 10,000m.
2005 was a successful year for Kiplagat. She won a silver medal at the 1/2 Marathon World Championships.

She won the 2007 World Cross Country Championships held in Mombasa, Kenya. Earlier, in February 2007, she competed at the Kenyan Cross Country Championships as an invited athlete and won the women's race, ahead of the elite among her former compatriots.In winning these championships, she beat off the entire Ethiopian challenge, of defending champion Tirunesh Dibaba, the previous short course champion Gelete Burika, and double bronze medalist from 2006, Meselech Melkamu. They finished: Dibaba, 2nd, Melkamu, 3rd, Burka, 4th.
She has been highly successful in road competitions, having won both editions of the IAAF World Road Running Championships and taking the inaugural prize of US $300,000 at the Zayed International Half Marathon.
Besides the Dutch marathon record, Kiplagat also owns four World records. In the 5000 meter road race she ran the distance in 14:47, while she lowered her own record in the 10 miles of 50.54 by two seconds to 50.50 during the 2006 Dam tot Damloop, which she also won in 2002. On 14 October 2007, Kiplagat set a new half-marathon world record of 1:06:25 at the World Road Running Championships at Udine, Italy, while defending the title she first won in 2006. She also smashed her own 20km world record en route, running 1:02:57. However, Paula Radcliffe has run a faster half-marathon on the slightly downhill Great North Run course in 2003.
Kiplagat was ruled out for the whole of 2009 and returned to competition with a win at the Runner’s World Zandvoort Circuit Run in March 2010. In September, she ran at the Dam tot Damloop and was the runner-up behind her niece Hilda Kibet, finishing with a time of 52:03.
Her cousins include Sylvia Kibet, Hilda Kibet and Susan Sirma.
