Commonwealth Games 1500m champion Faith Chepng’etich says running a fast time at the Athletics Kenya national trials at the Safaricom Stadium on Saturday will not be important as she chases a ticket to the Beijing World Championships.

Chepng’etich, 21, (pictured) will be hoping to make her second show at the premier world track and field competition, having made a debut appearance in Moscow two years ago.
