USATF announced the teams Thursday that will compete at the IAAF World Half Marathon Championships.

The men's team is led by USATF Cross Country champion Leonard Korir and the nearly ageless Bernard Lagat. Also on the team are Samuel Chelanga, Diego Estrada and Jared Ward.

The women's team is led by Sara Hall and Jordan Hasay, both of whom ran under 2:29:00 for the marathon in 2017 multiple times, with Hasay becoming the the second-fastest American marathoner of all-time. Also on the team are Natosha Rogers, Elaina Tabb and Becky Wade.
