Winfred Yavi delivered another near-record performance at the Prefontaine Classic but clarified she is not chasing Beatrice Chepkoech's world record for now.
Winfred Yavi has eyed Beatrice Chepkoech’s world record for a while now, and seemingly, every fast race seems like an attack on the record, but that is different for the Kenyan-born Bahraini.
Beatrice Chepkoech’s world record stands at 8:44.32 and was set at the Diamond League Meeting in Monaco in 2018.
Winfred Yavi is the only woman to have come close to the record, having clocked a splendid 8:44.39 at the Diamond League Meeting in Rome in 2024.
