Tesfaye Abera

In 2013, a fifth-place finish at the Jan Meda International earned him selection for Ethiopia at the 2013 IAAF World Cross Country Championships.

He ran in several European road races later that year but failed to place in the top three at all but the Corrida de Langueux,[4] where he was the winner.

[6] He was reselected for the 2015 IAAF World Cross Country Championships, but failed to build on his previous success, ending in 26th place.

Opening at the Dubai Marathon, he led in a very fast-paced race and out-sprinted defending champion Lemi Berhanu Hayle in the final section to win 2:04:24 hours.

[10] He continued his winning ways at the Hamburg Marathon that April, beating Philemon Rono with another quick run of 2:06:58 hours.
