Kenya's Beatrice Chebet and Burundi's Rodrigue Kwizera finish top of the rankings at the end of the 2023-2024 Cross-Country Athletics World Tour. Athletes are ranked according to their three best cross-country performance scores achieved between September 2023 and March 31, 2024, at least two of which had to come from World Cross Country Tour meetings.
Chebet scored victories at the Gold-level meetings in Atapuerca in October, then in Elgoibar in February. She then successfully defended her title at the Belgrade 24 World Cross Country Championships, which propelled her to the top of the overall standings with a score of 3880. Chebet's compatriot Edinah Jebitok, winner in Seville, Venta de Banos and Hannut, shares second place with Ethiopian Likina Amebaw, victorious in Amorebieta, Soria and Alcobendas.
Kwizera, who shared the lead in the Cross Country Tour rankings last season, this time finished the tour as the sole winner of the men's competition. He won the Gold-level meetings in Soria and Alcobendas last November, then was runner-up in Elgoibar earlier this year, giving him an overall score of 3700 points.
