Viola Jelagat Kibiwot (born 22 December 1983 in Keiyo District) is a runner from Kenya who specialises in the 1500 metres.

She was seventh on the track at the 2006 Commonwealth Games, but appeared to make her breakthrough over 1500 m at the 2007 World Championships in Athletics with a fifth-place finish in a personal best time of 4:02.10 minutes in the final.

She competed at the 2008 Summer Olympics, but failed to build upon her progress on the global stage and did not advance beyond the heats.

At the 2013 World Cross Country Championships she helped Kenya to the team title with her seventh-place finish.

An outing over four miles on the roads in October 2013 saw her run the world best for the distance, as she completed the 4 mijl van Groningen race in 19:20 minutes.
