Kenyan marathoners Judith Jerubet, bronze medalist at the 2024 Wuhan Marathon, and Daniel Muindi, silver medalist at the 2024 Lima Marathon, are the latest Kenyan athletes to receive sanctions from the world athletics anti-doping body due to doping offenses.
In Wuhan, Jerubet ran 2:27:38 on March 24, finishing behind Ethiopia's Mare Dibaba (2:25:12) and fellow Kenyan Pauline Chemning Korikwiang (2:26:40).
Jerubet has been banned for two years for using the banned substance, triamcinolone acetonide.
Muindi, 29, a five-time half-marathon winner in India and Poland, has been barred for three years after a urine sample collected at the Lima Marathon in Peru on May 19 tested positive for the banned anabolic steroid norandrosterone.
He ran 2:12:53 for silver behind countryman Dominic Letting (2:11:48) in Peru.
Both athletes face these bans as part of the Athletics Integrity Unit's crackdown on doping while Kenya remains a Category A nation on the WADA list, requiring stringent testing for its athletes.
