Edna Kiplagat to Race Bupa Great North Run

Published by Athletics Weekly on August 5, 2014

Edna Kiplagat is to return to British roads on September 7 to race the Bupa Great North Run.

The two-time world marathon champion was victorious over 26.2 miles in the British capital in April as she led home a Kenyan one-two, out-sprinting her namesake Florence Kiplagat to win the Virgin Money London Marathon.

The 34-year-old is due to face a field including the likes of fellow Kenyan and former London marathon winner Mary Keitany on Tyneside and will be hoping to make up for her defeat in a sprint finish to Ethiopia’s Tirunesh Dibaba at this event in 2012.

World and Olympic marathon champion Stephen Kiprotich will be among those to race the men’s event.
