we just need another four to complete a 20, in a hypothetical, with 4 of the top 60 competing in lanzhou as we speak, if one can crush the course record there: would she deserve a place in 17-20 here?
Just considering another four to make this list: maybe B.Dibaba (9th in London, winner Tokyo last year), Meskerem Assefa (4th Boston after two wins in under 2.22 in 2018), Y.Melese (disappointing 11th in Tokyo after two quick performances under 2.21 last year), and Boru Feyse Tadese (hasn’t run since second in Dubai early 2018). They are the veterans, the four up and comers in the mix are Bedatu Hirpa, Dera Dida, Azmera Abreha, and Visiline Jepkesho.
