    2020 Olympic Games Statistics - Women’s 10000m by K Ken Nakamura The records to look for in Tokyo: 1) Kenyan woman never won the W10000m in the OG. Will H Obiri be the first? 2) Showdown between Hassan & Gidey. Can Hassan become first from NED to win the Olympic 10000m? 3) Can Tsehay Gemechu become second (after Tulu) All African Games champion to win the Olympics. 4) Can Gezahegne win first medal for BRN? 5) Can Eilish McColgan become second GBR runner (after Liz, her mother) to win an Olympic medal?

  • Why Banning Kenya from Rio Presents an Olympian Dilemma
    6/21/2016 Why banning Kenya from Rio presents an Olympian dilemma Why banning Kenya from Rio presents an Olympian dilemma May 29, 2016 5.42pm BST Paul Dimeo Senior Lecturer in Sport, University of Stirling The Conversation’s partners The Conversation UK receives funding from Hefce, Hefcw, SAGE, SFC, RCUK, The Nuffield Foundation, The Ogden Trust, The Royal Society, The Wellcome Trust, Esmée Fairbairn Foundation and The Alliance for Useful Evidence, as well as sixty five university members. View the full list From left, Kenya’s Florence Kiplagat, Emily Chebet and Joyce Chepkirui celebrate victory at the Commonwealth Games in Glasgow. Reuters/Suzanne Plunkett The World Anti­Doping Agency, the International Olympic Committee and the International Association of Athletics Federations are facing a real dilemma. Having pushed Kenya towards improving its anti­doping environment, the question remains whether to follow through and deliver the ultimate sanction – disqualification from the 2016 Rio Olympic Games. Such a move would potentially prove disastrous for Kenyan sport. Athletes would lose the opportunity of participating in the most prestigious event. Months, even years, of planning would feel wasted. The economic rewards would be lost. The reputational damage would be enormous and a huge shadow would be cast over the country’s involvement in other international events. https://theconversation.com/why­banning­kenya­from­rio­presents­an­olympian­dilemma­59929 1/3 6/21/2016 Why banning Kenya from Rio presents an Olympian dilemma The arguments for such a move are clear. Media investigations claim to show widespread doping. More than 40 athletes have failed drugs tests since 2011 and 18 are currently serving bans.

  • 2015 Boston Marathon, Pro-Field Announcement Quotes By: Joyce Chepkirui, Patrick Makau and Wilson Chebet
    2015 Boston Marathon, pro-field announcement Quotes by: Joyce Chepkirui, Patrick Makau and Wilson Chebet PRAGUE, CZECH REPUBLIC January 20th, 2015 International Athletics Consultancy (IAC) is privileged to provide quotes from Joyce Chepkirui, Patrick Makau and Wilson Chebet in relation to their participation in 2015 Boston Marathon. Joyce Chepkirui – “2014 season was successful one for me, with Commonwealth and African 10,000m titles and 5th fastest All Time half marathon time of 66:19, set in Sportisimo Prague Half marathon. However, during 2014 I learned that I am a marathon runner at heart and I am very happy to compete in Boston, in my third marathon ever and with full transition to marathon in terms of training and mindset being behind me. Boston Marathon is about hard work and strong racing with no pacemakers, so I know that the race will suit me, as I can lead, follow, climb and utilize downhill sections. I want to win, it is a big task and I will be ready on April 20th.” Patrick Makau – “Competing in Boston Marathon is going to be very good, as it is my first World Marathon Majors event after almost two years of injuries and frustrations. Setting marathon World record in Berlin in 2011, becoming father for second time soon thereafter, controversy over my selection for the 2012 London Olympic Games, long period of injury in 2013 and 2014 – all these events played their roles, with me maturing as a person and athlete and I see 2015 Boston Marathon as a new beginning for me at one of the biggest stages for our sport.
