Another unknown Kenyan who suddenly came along,broke the world record, and then disappeared once the "magic" was done.
She is very new on the world stage so she is probably not yet in the ABP system.
Her PR for the Half-marathon set last year in Karlovy Vary, CZE last year was 1:09:07…and now 1 year later she can run 1:04:52.
Ms. Jepkosgei improved by 4 minutes and 15 seconds…which is only 19.5 seconds PER MILE improvement in one year at the international level of competition.
There is nothing suspicious about her progression in 1 year.
This would mean that Jordan Hasay might also improve her PR by 4 minutes and 15 seconds for the Half-Marathon in 1 year.
That means that Jordan Hasay could run a 1:03:40 in the Half-Marathon next year!!!
Go Jordan!!!
"Interestingly, Jepchirchir STARTED RUNNING JUST LAST YEAR, her main podium finish being a third place in the First Lady's Half Marathon in March."
"On Sunday, the brand new world half marathon record holder's manager, Davos Savija of Prague-based Ikaika Sport, was spoilt for choice, busy trying to negotiate a mouth-watering schedule for the lady from Cheptil, Nandi County."
Joycilene ran a 1:04:52 Half-marathon after only 1 year of running.
Uh oh.
Go Jordan!
(No worries.)
