Biography
[edit]Cherotich's first international medal was at the 2009 African Junior Athletics Championships, where she won a bronze medal in the 1500 metres (and was later promoted to bronze medals in the 400 m hurdles and 4 × 400 m after the doping disqualification of Amaka Ogoegbunam).[1]
After this, Cherotich began to focus primarily on the 3000 metre steeplechase, which she competed in during the 2013 and 2014 Diamond League seasons. Her best placing at a Diamond League meeting was 3rd at the 2013 Monaco Herculis meeting, finishing in a time of 9:36.82.[1]
She ran her personal best time of 9:28.04 at the 2013 Ostrava Golden Spike meet, finishing in 5th place.[1]
