I saw on Facebook that Chebet may run a sub 14 5000m. She is in perfect form. That 10k run in olympics was very well executed
WORLD RECORD ALERT.

Women's 5000m World record (14:00.21) held by Gudaf Tsegay (ETH) is vulnerable. As reigning World Cross Country Champion and Double Olympic Champion (5000m/10000m) Beatrice Chebet (KEN) descent to Zurich Diamond League tomorrow.

Chebet holds the 10000m World record with scintillating 28:54.14,  the only Woman with sub 29 minutes. Should everything goes well tomorrow, the 24-year-old might become the first Woman to run under 14 minutes in 5000m.
