Running a very fast time at 30K also gave me great morale and at 37K, I tried to push the pace. “Running with Letesenbet gave me big morale,” Beriso professed, adding, “she is a very strong woman that has run very well at all distances. As it was not expected that anyone would go with the WR tempo, the pacers from Gidey’s NN team stayed with her as Beriso surged to the front. Initially the gap was just a stride or two but after 37K, Beriso broke away from Gidey - and her pacers. The duo passed 35K in 1:51:21 (2:14:14 pace), but slowed to 3:13 kilometers as Beriso slowly edged ahead. While the pace stagnated, hovering just above the record, the racing was on and with each kilometer it was Beriso who now looked in control as Gidey ran with a worried frown.

So encouraged was Dedufo that he instructed her to follow Gidey’s 2:14 pace.īeriso and Gidey ran side by side amidst a phalanx of male pacers and racers and with a 3:10 for kilo 33 the projected pace reached 2:14:10.

In ’16, she had run a 2:20:48 debut in Dubai, but spent much of her subsequent years hampered by injuries. Such was the gaggle, that the black-clad Beriso, 31, was barely noticeable, that is until she pulled alongside Gidey after passing halfway.

Gidey, clad in a white NN singlet and arm sleeves ran ever so smoothly and seemingly in complete control, trailing a trio of orange-clad pacers and ensconced in a gaggle of men looking for TV time. The favorite and her pacers then pushed harder, cranking out a steady stream of kilos faster than the 3:10.6 pace of Brigid Kosgei’s 2:04:04 WR run at Chicago ’19. Nearly half of the 1,500m finalists from the 2012 Olympic Games, for example, have been linked to performance-enhancing substances.Guided by a trio of pacers Gidey began the race a bit cautiously, running 2:16:08 pace through an opening 16:08 5K, then began to ratchet down the tempo, splitting 32:03 at 10K and 48:03 - a 2:15:10 projection - at 15K.

Wasn’t she banned after positive test at Pan Am Marathon last year? #Cardiff2016 It’s unclear what drugs she may have been masking with the use of the diuretic. According to an earlier report, she was banned for the use of furosemide, a diuretic considered to be used a masking agent, which is banned by the World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA).įurosemide is often taken to mask the use of other drugs. Canada’s Rachel Hannah was upgraded to bronze after finishing in fourth place at the time of the race.Īccording to Peru This Week, Tejeda’s doping ban ended on March 9, 2016, two weeks before the global championships took place in Cardiff, Wales. “The IAAF, in reference to the case of the athlete Gladys Tejeda, has communicated today that after ‘checking carefully the archives and the complete medical file and consultations from both our medical committee and WADA, the IAAF has decided not to appeal the decision’ of the National Commission of Justice of the FPA so the punishment of six months imposed on the aforementioned athlete expires on March 9, 2016.” I’m thankful for Canada’s serious stance on clean sport as I know it is the right thing.”Īccording to Peru This Week, the Peruvian Athletics Association posted the following in February regarding Tejeda’s suspension (bolded statements by Canadian Running): “With only a six-month penalty that covered most of the winter season anyways, that scenario could be strategically timed by an athlete who wished to manipulate the system. “I think the short penalty of six months for a positive drug test does send mixed messages to the athletics world on how serious or not it is to take performance-enhancing substances,” says Hannah.
