Beatrice Chebet, the reigning World Cross Country champion, aims for a podium finish in the World Championships, which will be in Budapest, Hungary, from August 19 to 27.

Chebet declared her intentions for the season after winning the 5000 meters at the Kip Keino Classic, with the World Championships being her primary objective.

She went on to say that a podium place in Hungary would cap off a terrific season.

"My aim is to be on the podium." "I know everyone wants gold, but the most significanr thing for me is to be on the podium, and I believe I will be there with hard work," Chebet said.

Chebet, who defeated World 10,000m bronze medallist Margaret Kipkemboi and Judith Kiyeng to win the title, has committed to working hard to prepare for the world championship.


She ran 15:15.82 at Kasarani Stadium, maintaining her spotless season record.

"This is my first track competition since cross country." "I wanted to come here and start my season at the Kip Keino Classic to see where I could improve and find a way to correct mistakes," Chebet explained.

Following triumphs at the San Vittore Cross Country Tour in Italy and the World Cross Country Championships in Bathurst, Australia, the 23-year-old thinks her form is growing daily.

"My form is not back before of the championship, and the more I educated, more beneficial for the way my body has responded well," said the cross country champion after winning on Saturday.

Her victory at the San Vittore Cross Country Tour in Italy and the World Cross Country Championships in Bathurst, Australia, was her third.
