Sifan Hassan Aims for Historic Triple at Paris Olympics
The Dutch runner will compete in the 5,000m, 10,000m, and marathon, testing her endurance and versatility.
- Hassan previously won gold in the 5,000m and 10,000m at the Tokyo Olympics.
- She will begin her campaign with the 5,000m heats, followed by the 10,000m final and the marathon.
- Hassan's marathon debut included a remarkable victory in London and the second-fastest time ever in Chicago.
- The Paris marathon course will challenge athletes with its hilly terrain and tactical demands.
- Hassan draws inspiration from Emil Zatopek, who achieved a similar feat in the 1952 Helsinki Games.
