Hagos Gebrhiwet Berhe (Tigrinya: ሓጎስ ገብረሂወት, born 11 May 1994) is an Ethiopian long-distance runner and the former World Junior Record holder in the 5,000 meters (12:47:53).
Born in the Tigray Region, he took up running seriously in 2010.[3] He came sixth in the 5,000 metres at the 2011 Ethiopian National Championships and was selected to run the 3,000 metres at that year's World Youth Championships,[4] where he finished fifth with a time of 7:45.11 minutes.[5] Hagos noted that his first national selection had helped him develop his running and he went on to win the junior title at the Ethiopian Club's Cross Country, competing for Mesfin Engineering.[6]
Early careeredit
His first major win came soon after, as he took the title at the San Silvestre Vallecana 10 km race in Spain. He defeated Spain's top distance runners and also edged Eritrea's Teklemariam Medhin at the line in a personal best time of 27:57 minutes.[7]
On June 30, 2023, Gebrhiwet ran 12:49.80 for third place at the Lausanne Diamond League. By doing this, Gebrhiwet became the first athlete to run sub-12:50 over 10 years apart, as his first time under 12:50 was his former world junior record in 2012. Gebrhiwet would later solidify this form at the Monaco Diamond League on July 23, where he ran 12:42.18 for both the victory and a personal best. Additionally, his time places him as the 8th fastest athlete in history over 5,000 metres.
