Unless there are some use of concrete construction (floor, pillars...) which can take sometimes weeks to dry before being able to support further construction.
I don't want to sound insensitive to KK's family but why do they even need help from the Kenyan government? In his three marathon wins I would have to imagine between prize money, appearance fees, and bonuses from both the race and sponsors (particularly Nike) his family should be set for life.
I remember my woodshop teacher in high school talked about doing speed house building events. A few different construction teams would race to see who could build an identical house first. My recollection is it only took a few days.

It is insensitive and what’s it to you, anyway?
I suppose it could be insensitive but not necessarily. I actually wondered about this. If Kiptum and his parents were in the US unless he had a wife and/or kids his assets would go to his parents upon his death unless he had a will specifying otherwise. My heart breaks for his parents. I can't imagine anything worse than having to bury your kid and the awfulness must be even worse if you're burying the only one you have. But I still wondered why it seemed like his parents weren't going to get his winnings. And it's really nothing to me at all aside from curiosity.

Putin, Jong-un and the British royal family, have received $Billions from their countries. The Kiptums receiving a probably a modest house, doesn’t matter.
It is funny that you mention this, because I was going to post that when I used to live in DC, I ran by the Embassy of China every morning as it was being built over on Van Ness. This was in the mid-to-late 00s.
They had workers living in temporary housing in a vacant lot across the street. They worked 24 hours a day in shifts, and that palatial thing was built in like a month. It was insane. Anyone other DC folks remember that?
