Ethiopia's 2024 season was built around the Paris Olympics, and it came down to the roads. Four athletics medals — one gold and three silver — and the gold was a marathon title the country had been waiting 24 years for.
Tamirat Tola was not supposed to run. He entered the Olympic marathon as a late replacement for the injured Sisay Lemma, and on 10 August he won it in 2:06:26 over one of the hardest courses the race has used, with the climb out through the western suburbs. The time took the Olympic record off Samuel Wanjiru, whose 2:06:32 from Beijing had lasted 16 years.
He beat Bashir Abdi of Belgium by 21 seconds and Benson Kipruto of Kenya by 34. It was Ethiopia's first Olympic men's marathon title since Gezahegne Abera won in Sydney in 2000.
The next morning the women's marathon went the other way by the narrowest margin of the championships.
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.
