Those are the top six Ethiopian Women in the 5k/10k this year. There are other fast runners but I haven't listed their season races here. Who do you think is the better runner this season besides Tirunesh. Is it Defar or Adere? What do you think about comparing Ejagayou, Werknesh, and Melkamu?
Great results! So far these women have another meet, the World Athletics Final coming up. I don't think we'll see them in Linz, Brussels, Rieti, or Berlin before that though. Maybe! :)
