Abayneh Ayele Woldegiorgis (born 4 November 1987) is an Ethiopian long-distance runner who competes mainly in road running events.

He won the 5000 m at the Oda Memorial, was third at the Gifu Seiryu Half Marathon on two occasions and set a 10,000 metres track best of 27:57.51 minutes.

[2] His second international call-up came for the 2016 IAAF World Half Marathon Championships and he was among the leaders of the race before falling back into third, then fourth position behind Olympic champion Mo Farah after a sprint finish for the bronze medal.

His finishing time of 59:59 minutes was a new best (in spite of rainy conditions) and meant that he led the Ethiopians to the team silver medals, alongside Tamirat Tola and Mule Wasihun.
