Chepkirui, Kiplagat and Chebet team up to claim 1-2-3 finish in the 10,000m race at the Commonwealth Games

Joyce Chepkirui's sheer ingenuity paid dividend on Tuesday night when she successfully orchestrated the Commonwealth Games 10,000m podium sweep at Hampden Park Stadium.

During the race, the Kenyans decided not to talk to each other and instead used gestures to signal their plans in a move to lock out Ugandan opponents Vanis Chemutai and Chebet Toroitich, who understand their mother-tongue.
