BATHURST, Australia (Reuters) -Kenya's Beatrice Chebet overhauled favourite Letesenbet Gidey with a stunning late burst over the last 100 metres to clinch the women's cross country world title on Saturday.
Jacob Kiplimo later won the men's title for Uganda but only the wind whipped up by the approach of a thunder storm about to sweep over the Mount Panorama race track was able to offer drama comparable to the women's race.
