Two-time 5,000m Olympic silver medallist Hellen Obiri is a happy woman.

Despite finishing third on her women's marathon debut at the Olympics, she remains focused on better things to come.

Obiri added another feather to her cap on the final day of the 2024 Paris Olympic Games to take Kenya’s medals tally to 11 (four gold, two silver and five bronze) as the East African nation topped the continent ranking and finished 17th globally.

Dutchwoman Sifan Hassan stole the show to win gold in an Olympic record of 2:22:55 barely a few days after winning bronze in both 5,000m and 10,000m.
