2024 Pre Classic | Women's 10,000m World Record Full Race

Beatrice Chebet: "It's a privilege to run with her (Gudaf Tsegay)".

That is the headline!

As Kenyan, I teared up.
Thanks Beatrice, thanks Gudaf.

Together with our neighbours to the North, the Ethiopians, we have what I'd call a symbiotic relationship. Without them, there'd be no us (Kenya) and I hope the feeling is mutual.

Last year (2023), on the same grounds, they ran the 5k and Gudaf broke the world record with Beatrice about 4 seconds adrift. These two are phenomenal!

AWESOME!

The very first ever to go under 29 minutes. Beatrice will always be remembered as the first. She made history. Congratulations Beatrice! Looking forward to your long journey ahead as well.

A world record as she prepare for the top top event in Paris. It's gonna be crazy

[PeterOpanga]

All Kenyans 🇰🇪🇰🇪 let's gather here. I love how Major BC let Tsegay set the pace for her ❤❤

[Missjj]

I wonder if the commentator didnt know chebet or was just outright trying to downplay chebet.. Chebet's 5000m pb is 14.05, a 2 time 10km world cross country champion... The 33 10000m time was run when she was just 19 years a few months after winning the u20 world cross country junior tittle and it was run in high altitude in kenya as a teenager

[jessicaT]

there's no better feeling than having a PB in a race. Whether you win or not is less important. Congrats to these women!

[mosesthomas]

Congratulations Chebet. You made us soooo proud back in Kenya. Big-up to our neighbors sister Gudaf, her push till the last two laps really set the title for Chebet.
Hongera tena sana Chebet.
Paris here we come

[elijahnyoli]

She has an amazing kick but doing this 3 laps to go is bold move and determination at top. She is going at Paris flying

[chrishaggie]

What a tremendous run. I bow in admiration to Beatrice Chebet. She used Tsegay as a pacer and then dispensed with her. Phenomenal

[malaikajabali-ojfh]

Its Kenya 🇰🇪 for Kenya 🇰🇪 within Kenya 🇰🇪 Home of heroes 🎉🎉🎉

[amtogo]

Congrats Chebet for your world Record. Making kenya proud

[signpost]

She probably would've gone another second and a bit faster if the lapped runners weren't in her path. Great running.

[dctkudv]

As she was within the final 100 meters, Beatrice Chebet was like, "The old world record, I spit on it!"

[cmyhegi]

I still remember when around 1953-54 Emil Zatopeck run the first time under 29 minutes. Now the first time a women did the same. Congratulation!

[johnway]

Excellent sportsmanship by Tsegay with her sincere congratulations towards Chebet!

[sammycheptaruskibor]

Beatrice Chebet with Faith Kipyegon and Tsegay in paris will be madness

[yonarsalach]

Chebet is a class, she is a great talented and experienced lady. Respect and congratulations. To our sister from great Ethiopia we really love you. Kenya and Ethiopia have been great friends and neighbors who have pushed each other to break limits

[MrBeast-]

Sub 29 by 5.5 seconds is unreal. The talent in women's running is insane.

[gbnztkg]

Congratulations from neighbors Ethiopia 🇪🇹, good job .

In Chebet, we have found a replacement for the mercurial Vivian Cheruiyot.
