The reigning Federation of East Africa Secondary Schools Sports Association (FEASSSA) 5,000m champion Joyline Chepkemoi has set her focus to retain titles at the school games when she lines up at the Rift Valley Secondary Schools Sports Association (RVSSSA) when track and field starts tomorrow, March 13th at the University of Eldoret Pavilion.
After finishing third at the Chepsaita Cross country in December, Chepkemoi said that she will be competing in three events in search, not only for the school title but earn good time ahead of Africa under 20 national trials.
“I will be running in three events to ensure that I get enough endurance to face the world in major events,” said Chepkemoi.
On Thursday, she will be competing in the 5,000m then Friday run the 1,500m and conclude on Saturday with a cross country.
“This is not just for schools but I want to earn a ticket into the Africa under 20/18 national trials slot set for next month. All the top athletes, seeking Africa slots will be here. Even those who have completed school and are within the age bracket are here,” added Chepkemoi who has recovered from an injury.
