Ethiopia took 37 athletes to the World Championships in Doha and came home fifth in the table with eight medals: two gold, five silver, one bronze. Every one of the eight came from 1500 metres upwards, which is the shape of Ethiopian athletics, and five of them were decided by less than a second.
The first gold was a defence. On 30 September Muktar Edris, world champion in London two years earlier, held off his own teammate Selemon Barega over the last 40 metres of the 5000 m final, 12:58.85 to 12:59.70. Two days earlier Letesenbet Gidey had run 30:21.23 for silver in the 10,000 m behind Sifan Hassan; on the final night Yomif Kejelcha took the men's 10,000 m silver in 26:49.34, 0.97 s behind Joshua Cheptegei. Gudaf Tsegay added a bronze in the 1500 m with a personal best of 3:54.38.
Doha moved its marathons to one minute before midnight to escape the day, and the night was not much cooler.
A distance singlet is a lightweight, sleeveless racerback vest built for one job: racing long, from the 5,000 m to the marathon. It trims a running top to the least fabric that still carries a national crest and two competition bibs — typically around 85 grams, roughly half the mass of an everyday cotton tee.
The version we archive is the race-issued one: the same federation kit an athlete pulls on in a World Championship final, not the replica hanging in a retail store.
Strip a running shirt of its sleeves, its collar and every gram it does not need, and you get a singlet: a vest cut low at the neck, deep at the arm, and closed only across the shoulders and sides. On a distance runner it is the default racing top from the 5,000 m upward, because over 12 or 26 miles the enemy is heat, and the singlet loses more of it than anything else you are allowed to wear.
