Inspired by 1,500m World champion and record holder Faith Kipyegon, Deaflympics silver medallist Sharon Bitok Jeptarus is out to smash records in the category at the forthcoming Tokyo 2025 Summer Deaflympics set to kick off in Japan next Saturday.
Bitok will also be out to break another silver jinx in the women’s 800m category, where she will ply her trade for Kenya alongside Aidah Odero.
