Running in heat one of the semi finals, Kiprop kept with the leading pack until the seventh lap when he lost steam. He finished tenth and did not make the final.

The leading pack of Eliud Kipchoge, Tariku Bekele and World 3000m steeplechase champion Shaheen Said Saaeed proved too fast for the Ugandan.
