Amid outcry over the potential inclusion of Russian and Belarusian athletes at Paris 2024, the IOC has reiterated its stance on sanctions. The International Olympic Committee (IOC) has reiterated it will stand by the sanctions imposed against Russia and Belarus after appearing to open the door for their inclusion at the Paris 2024 Games. The two nations are currently banned from Olympic competition following Russia’s invasion of Ukraine last year. But IOC statements last month appeared to clear a pathway for the inclusion of athletes from both countries to compete under a neutral flag. Now, however, the governing body has sought to clarify its position - in particular as a response to recent comments made by Stanislav Pozdnyakov, head of Russia’s Olympic Committee. Pozdnyakov told Russia’s state news agency TASS, “Russians must participate on the same conditions as athletes from other countries. We do not welcome additional conditions and criteria, especially those that inclu

Ruth Chepngetich, the 2019 world marathon champion, produced two amazing runs at the Kenyan Cross Country Championships – a World Athletics Cross Country Tour Bronze event – to win a pair of titles within an hour at the Kenya Prisons Training College in Ruiru. Racing at the venue that was probably her training ground during her time in the Kenya Prisons Service, Chepngetich dominated the senior women’s 10km event, then anchored her team to victory in the mixed relay. Kenya held its trial event for the World Athletics Cross Country Championships Bathurst 23 in December, but today’s event will be used to select national runners for the Sirikwa Classic – a World Cross Country Tour Gold meeting – in Eldoret on 4 February. Within the first kilometre, Chepngetich – who led the world marathon list last year with 2:14:18, the second-fastest run in history – had stretched the senior women’s field to single file. By half way, her lead had grown to about 150 metres. She continued to lead, bu

The United Nations have long recognized, advocated for and supported the important contribu tions of sport to development and peace, with a significant record of General Assembly and Human Rights Council resolutions, UN treaties, Secretary-General’s reports and other guiding documents highlighting the unique potential of sport. The processes and milestones which led to the historic adoption of the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development and its 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) in 2015 were followed by the Sport for Development and Peace community with strong interest and a commitment to continue using sport as a unique tool to support this new global plan of action.
