Biography
In 2016, Degefa began winning a series of cross country races. At the Cross de l'Acier, she bested teammate Fantu Worku and Olympic champion Peruth Chemutai to win by four seconds.[1] The following year, Degefa won the Cinque Mulini race. She outkicked Kalkidan Fentie in the final stretch to win by four seconds again.[2][3]
Degefa's first and only global medal came in 2016 at the World Athletics Under-20 Championships, where she won the 3000 metres in a championship record time of 8:41.76.[4]
In 2021, Degefa made her debut at the marathon distance at the Valencia Marathon, finishing 3rd in 2:23:01. Her position was later moved up to 2nd after race winner Nancy Jelagat was suspended for an anti-doping rules violation.[5]
