Portrait of Joan Chelimo after finishing an 8km training run through the forest in Iten, Kenya, on March 7, 2023. Joan, a co-founder of Tirop’s Angels, finished fifth in last year’s London marathon, is a 2018 Prague Half Marathon Champion, and the winner of other prestigious road races such as Berlin Half Marathon, Boston 10K and Boston Half Marathon.
After world record-holder Agnes Tirop was murdered a group of her fellow athletes formed Tirop’s Angels to stop gender-based violence. The group has filed 12 cases alleging domestic abuse with the police since Tirop’s death, including women who have been hit, slapped, thrown to the ground and had their bank accounts hijacked or property deeds changed. More than 40% of woman in Kenya say they have experienced physical or sexual violence by their husbands or partners, but the prize money that has flowed into Iten from running, along with endorsement contracts from global sporting brands, has raised the stakes for these athletes.
