On 10 March 2022, Abebe won the Ethiopian U20 Championships in the 3000 m. Her time of 9:09.5 was both a U20 and U18 world lead.
Ethiopia entered three runners – Abebe, Medina Eisa, and Bertukan Welde – but as only two were permitted to compete, Eisa did not start the race and Abebe and Welde ran in her place.
In the race, Kenya's Betty Chelangat battled with Abebe for most of the race and only took the lead in the final stages, winning in a time of 9:01 with Abebe taking the silver medal.
Of course, I wanted to get gold, which didn't work out, but I am incredibly happy.In October 2022, Abebe ran at the World Athletics Cross Country Tour Gold event in Bydgoszcz.
After covering the opening 2 km in 7:12, she stayed with the lead pack as it decreased from 10 runners to five to three – Lucy Mawia, Abebe, and Maureen Cherotich.
