(From L) Kenya's Wilson Kipsang (2nd placed), Ethyopia's Kenenisa Bekele (winner) and Kenya's Evans Chebet (third placed) pose on the podium after the 43rd Berlin Marathon in Berlin on September 25, 2016. World Athletics said Kipsang, a bronze medallist at the 2012 Olympics, had four whereabouts failures between April 2018 and May 2019. Kipsang, 38, said he missed a test on May 17, 2019 due to a traffic accident involving an overturned lorry and also provided a photo of the crash. The AIU said the ADRVs committed by Kipsang were treated as one single ADRV and the more severe sanction was imposed. Athletics Kenya President Jackson Tuwei said it was very sad news.
