"Very few Olympians have jobs there. They run in marathons to make ends meet. They don't have many facilities like we do. Many say we don't have good facilities here but that is not true.
"Come to think of it, the place where Olympic 800-metre champion David Rudisha trained did not have a synthetic track."
Sudha also had suggestions about what can be done to improve the pace of Indian athletes.
"I think what we need is a dedicated camp for only long-distance running and not a mixed one for athletics as it is now.
"Our diet is also better than what there is Kenya. For higher altitudes the camp should be held in Ooty where it has many routes with army tracks" said Sudha, who finished 13th at the London Olympics steeplechase heats.
