Kenyan track and field athlete (born 2005)
Diana Cherotich (born 24 December 2005) is a Kenyan long-distance and cross country runner.[1]
Career
Cherotich is from Bungoma County, Kenya.[2] She competed at the 2024 World Cross Country Championships in Belgrade, Serbia, where she finished fifth for Kenya in the U20 race, winning silver in the team event.[3][4] This came after she missed the chance to compete the previous year at the Championships in Bathurst, Australia, due to VISA issues.[5]
Cherotich joined the University of Oregon in March 2025.[6] She made her race debut for the Oregon Ducks at the Stanford Invitational on 4 April 2025, where she set a new school record for the 10,000 metres, running 31:45.22 seconds for the win. The time was also the ninth-fastest in collegiate history, and was more than 21 seconds faster than the previous Oregon program record from 2013.[7] She then won the women’s 10,000-metres final at the Big Ten Outdoor Track & Field Championships at Hayward Field on 16 May, running a meeting record time of 32:00.48.[8]
She won the individual and team title with Oregon at the Big Ten Conference cross country championships on 31 October 2025.[9][10]
