I know this is beating a dead horse wrt Kenyan-born steeplers but it's worth noting-
Jebet's form is atrocious... she essentially lands on both feet over every barrier. The WR could drop another 5 sec from increased efficiency alone if she just spent a year on technique, and at age "19" she should still be very receptive to changes in form.
I will like to see her run a 3k. Probably a 8:30 min.

Wasn't the following earlier post obvious enough for ya?
"Couldn't break 9 for a flat 3k before this year.
Shows up in Olympic year with Bahraini citizenship and runs 8:59, then 8:53 steeple.
Wonder how that happened?"
Where are Native Son and El Keniano, are they not patriotic enough to celebrate a world record in their country's national sport except rugby?
Or maybe they are too drunk to post yet.
