Normally, the USA wins or china does these days. However percentage wise, Australia is the most atheltic. Theres another question on this somewhere on here which proves that. Overall, Kenya will be the country to be honoured given its ability to donate/sell/lose athletes to countries of the world such as USA, Qatar, among others and still scopes many medals in world athletic championships, Olympics and don't even mention marathons and cross-coutries. However, this might even be exaggerated when you focus more on middle and long distance races.
