Maureen Jepkoech and Edwin Bett emerged victorious in the senior races at the second Athletics Kenya Cross Country meet in Kapsokwony.
In the women’s race, Maureen Jepkoech closely followed Catherine Reline, who did much of the hard work throughout the race. As they neared the finish line, Jepkoech outpaced the experienced Reline to take first place. Delvine Relin Meringor secured third position.
Fresh off her victory at the Athletics Kenya Cross Country opener in Machakos, Maureen Jepkoech is determined to maintain her winning streak as she targets a spot on the Kenyan team for the 2025 World Championships in Tokyo, Japan.
