The Rosa group's best year. Beatrice Chebet ran 28:54.14 for 10,000m in Eugene, the first woman under 29 minutes, then took double Olympic gold in Paris over 5,000m and 10,000m — the first Kenyan woman to manage that double. She closed the year with 13:54 for 5km on the road in Barcelona, the first woman under 14 minutes on any surface. Jacob Kiplimo retained his world cross-country title in Belgrade that March.

Arm sleeves are removable knit tubes from bicep to wrist that give runners adjustable warmth at cool starts, UPF sun protection, light compression and — worn singly — a sprint signature. They are the most modular piece in the race kit.
Their origin is basketball: Allen Iverson's trainer cut a compression stockinette for his elbow in January 2001, Iverson scored 51 that night, and the sleeve became a league staple before crossing to marathon start lines and single-armed sprinters.
