He is rabbit charged with taking “Team Cheruiyot” through the pace before dropping out at the 1,000m mark as the Kenyans battle “Team Ingebrigtsen.”Sein’s “Team Cheruiyot” has the reigning world 1,500m champion Timothy Cheruiyot, the 2017 world 1,500m champion Elijah Manang’oi who is also the reigning Commonwealth champion, Africa Under-18 1,500m champion Vincent Keter and Edwin Melly. “Team Cheruiyot” will be at the Nyayo National Stadium in Nairobi. Sein has predicted a winning time of 4:50 or below, owing to the training they have so far received. “I sustained an injury after the 2012 London Olympic trials, which locked me out for three years. The injury recurred after the 2016 Rio Olympic trials in Eldoret,” said Sein, who went to Eldoret with one of the fastest times that season of 1:45.48.
