Beatrice Chebet (born 5 March 2000) is a Kenyan long-distance runner . In 2022, she won the silver medal in the 5000 metres at the World Championships , and became Commonwealth , African and Diamond League champion. Chebet claimed the gold medal for the women's senior race at the 2023 and 2024 World Cross Country Championships.[1] 10,000 metres , with a time of 28:54.14, set at the 2024 Prefontaine Classic on 25 May. In setting this record, Chebet became the first woman in history to break 29 minutes for the 10,000 metres. She is nicknamed the "smiling assassin".[2] [3]
She took the world under-20 title in the 5000 m in 2018 and at the 2019 World Cross Country Championships .
Beatrice Chebet was born on 5 March 2000, the daughter of Francis and Lilian Kirui.[4] [5] [5] Londiani , graduating from there in 2013.[5] [5]
In June 2018, at the age of 18, Chebet won the Kenyan Under-20s 5000 metres. A month later at Tampere 2018 , she became the first Kenyan woman and the first non-Ethiopian since 2006 to win the 5000 m title at the World U20 Championships in Athletics .[6]
At the 2019 World Cross Country Championships , the top three athletes in the women's U20 race – Chebet and the Ethiopian duo of Alemitu Tariku and Tsigie Gebreselama – were all awarded the time of 20:50 as they finished together. Tariku was initially announced as the winner, with Gebreselama awarded silver. However, after the photo finish footage was reviewed Chebet received the gold medal.[7] [8]
Her best success of 2022 came in July at the World Championships in Eugene, Oregon , where she claimed the silver medal for the closely-run 5000 m race with a time of 14:46.75 behind Gudaf Tsegay in 14:46.29 and ahead of Dawit Seyaum (14:47.36).[9]
Chebet trains in Londiani , Kericho County.[8]
