Olympic 5000m champion Beatrice Chebet expects a rough ride when she chases a historic Olympic double in the 10,000m final of the Paris Olympic Games on August 9 at the Stade de France.
Chebet won Kenya's first gold medal at the Paris show when she outsprinted two-time Olympic 1500m champion Faith Kipyegon on Monday night to win the 5000m title. "It will be tough but I will try my best," she said.
Faith Kipyegon won a silver.
