BOULDER — The world's best track and field athletes are heading to Qatar, Doha, to compete at the 2019 IAAF World Track and Field Championships, September 27-October 6, and that includes three former Buffs and Olympians, Jenny Simpson, Emma Coburn and Jeremy Dodson.

None of these athletes are strangers to the international stage as each have been racing on the world stage since their days at CU. This will be the seventh world championship for Simpson, while it is the fourth world championship for Coburn and the third for Dodson.
