Chakir Boujattaoui

Chakir Boujattaoui (born 16 January 1983 in Nador) is a Moroccan long distance runner who specialises in cross country running, and the 5000 metres and steeplechase on the track.

Boujattaoui has competed at the IAAF World Cross Country Championships and finished eighth at the 2009 race and twelfth in 2010.

[4] Boujattaoui recorded a new 5000 metres personal best of 13:09.62 at the Golden Gala a week later,[5] and he was selected to represent Morocco at the 2009 World Championships in Athletics.

He made it to the 5000 metres final of the World Championships and finished in eleventh position, beating more experienced compatriot Anis Selmouni.

[9] However, his performance did not stand as he failed a pre-competition drugs test for MIRCERA (an variant on the banned blood booster EPO).
