Berehanu Tsegu

Berehanu Wendemu Tsegu (born 30 September 1999) is an Ethiopian long-distance runner.

He tested positive for erythropoietin (EPO), a banned blood booster, at the 2019 Copenhagen Half Marathon.

Though he initially disputed the results, he later admitted to the violation and received a four-year ban from the sport.

This occurred during a period where World Athletics had highlighted Ethiopia as a country at risk of widespread doping, which was followed by the launch of an education programme by the Ethiopian Athletics Federation.
