ATHLETICS The millions up for grabs for Eliud Kipchoge and co. at the Berlin Marathon
Four-time London Marathon champion Eliud Kipchoge will be returning to his favourite course with the hope of bagging his fifth title.
Most of the time, when athletes have long seasons, they tend to perform poorly at some point but Chebet has maintained her momentum and displayed great results all through.
“I have managed to believe in myself and know that I am capable of anything…that’s what has kept me going. You see Gudaf Tsegay just believed that she could do it and she managed.
"She just doubled (5000m and 10,000m) in Budapest and she dominated at the Prefontaine Classic,” Chebet said.
The 23-year-old opened her season with two Cross-country races before returning to the track with a bang. Her first race was the 5000m at the Kip Keino Classic where she won before proceeding to the National Police Service Championships where she also won the 1500m.
