Dibaba to return to Boston, site of her WR run

[Ryan]

Boston, USA - Tirunesh Dibaba, the young Ethiopian superstar who two years ago brought a sell-out crowd to its feet with a World Indoor women's 5000m record in Boston, will be among the headliners at the next edition of the Reebok Boston Indoor Games on 27 January 2007.

On 21 January 2005 at the Boston Indoor meet, Dibaba, 21, ran a time of 14:32.93, obliterating compatriot Berhane Adere's 14:39.29 World record which had been set a year before in Stuttgart, Germany. At last year's meet which as usual was held at the Reggie Lewis Track and Athletic Center at Roxbury Community College, Dibaba made a valiant attempt to improve her own mark but fell short with 14:35.46.
