Obiri, failed to shine at her Worlds 10,000m debut at the ongoing World Championships in Doha.

At the 10,000m final won by Dutchwoman Sifan Hassan, Obiri look beaten but returned to 5,000m heats with resounding performance posting the fastest qualifying time of 14:52.13 on Wednesday.

In March this year, Obiri became the first woman to win outdoors, indoors and cross country world individual titles at the senior level to emulate Kenenisa Bekele of Ethiopia during the World country championships in Aarhus, Denmark and would love to close the season with another victory.

Obiri, also the 5,000m Olympics silver medallist, finished fourth at the IAAF Diamond League final in Brussels last month but has the fastest time so far this season, 14:20.36, set in the race at the IAAF Diamond League meeting in London.
