Faith Kipyegon will be running in the women's 1500m |
Looking at the women 3000m’s start list, I could not help but wonder whether such a stellar field has ever been assembled for this event in recent times! There are two world record holders; Genzebe Dibaba and Almaz Ayana, with Ayana staging a comeback after being away from competitive running for a while due to an injury.
Hellen Obiri who is ranked as world number one at the moment in the 5000m event will also be there, together with Sifan Hassan who gave a hard run to Dibaba in their recent 1500m race that led to her running a national record of 3:55.93, will also be there!
