The women's 10,000 metres at the World Athletics Championships was held at the Khalifa International Stadium in Doha, Qatar, on 28 September 2019.

The only other athlete to join the lead group was Sifan Hassan, who took a little more than a lap to bridge the gap from the back of the pack.

The Kenyan efforts kept driving the train until 4 laps to go when World leader Gidey quickly accelerated to the lead.

42 year old Sinead Diver's personal best turned out to be the W40 Masters World Record.

With a lack of success at 800 metres and the 5000 scheduled on same nights as the 1500, the odd 10,000/1500 double has never previously been accomplished at this level.
