Gelete Burka ran 30:40.87 at the FBK Games day one on June 10, 2017 at Hengelo, Netherlands. Gelete has been a world class runner since 2003. Burka took the bronze in the World Cross Country Championships in 2003. Gelete was eighth in the 1,500 meters at the World Championships in Helsinki in 2005.

In 2008, 2010, and 2012, Gelete Burka medaled in the World Indoor Champs. In Valencia, Burka won the 1,500 meter indoor title. In 2010, in Doha, Burka took the bronze in the 1,500 meters, and in Istanbul, in 2012, Gelete Burka won the bronze at 3000 meters.

Distance runners move up in distances, over their careers. In 2006, Gelete ran a 3000 meters in 8:25.92. In 2007, Gelete Burka ran the 5000 meters in 14:31.20.

Gelete Burka has had a long career in athletics. In April 2015, Geleta Burka ran her first 10,000 meters, with the company of Shalane Flanagan for 24.5 laps. Burka, I believe, ran 31:06, and Flanagan ran 31:08. Burka took the silver medal in Beijing 2015 in 10,000 meters.

In Rio, Gelete Burka ran her PB of 30:26.66 over 10,000 meters, finishing eighth.

This is another year.

On 10 June 2017, Gelete Burka, ETH, ran 30:40.87 to win the women’s 10,000 meters at Hengelo. In second, Senbere Teferi, ETH, ran 30:41.68. In third, Belaynesh Oljira, ETH, ran 30:44.57. The race was, essentially, the Ethiopian Trials for London 2017 World Championships. Burka is a fine 10,000m runner, and her kick, honed over racing 1,500m, 3,000m and 5000m, is like a surgeon with its precision. Finely tuned, Burka knows how to put some real estate between her and her pursuers.

Gelete Burka used her wonderful kick to put that distance between her and Senberi Teferi and Belaynesh Oljira.

Complete results are below on day one.
