Шаблон:Short description Alemayehu Shumye Tafere (1988 – 11 January 2013; Addis Ababa, Ethiopia) was an Ethiopian long-distance runner who specialised in marathon running.[1]
Born in Nazret, he took up running seriously in 2004 when he moved to Addis Ababa with the hope of emulating the success of Haile Gebrselassie.[2] He made his marathon debut in 2008 at the Marathon del Riso in Vercelli and won the race in a time of 2:14:33.[3] He ran in two other marathons that year, winning the Warsaw Marathon in 2:11:50 – a course record and personal best – and then breaking the course record to win the Beirut Marathon in November.[2][4] He came tenth at the Zurich Marathon in 2009 and significantly improved his personal best at the Frankfurt Marathon, running a time of 2:08:46 for fifth place as the only non-Kenyan to reach the top eight.[5]
He was among the leaders of the Xiamen Marathon in January 2010, but fell back at the 35 km mark, eventually taking fifth place.[6] He returned to the race the following year and took third place in 2:09:58, his second sub-2:10 clocking.[7] In his second run of 2011 he finished in the top five of the Rotterdam Marathon, again running under two hours and ten minutes.[8] He was one of six men to go under the previous course record at the Ljubljana Marathon in October, but did not make the podium with his fifth-place finish.[9] Shumye won the Gold Coast Marathon on 1 July 2012 in Gold Coast, Queensland, Australia.[10]
He died in a car accident in Addis Ababa on January 11, 2013, aged 24 years.[1]
