Aron Kifle prize money
Aron Kifle has been paid $1,000 by the Diamond League, which ranks 3236th of the 3,683 athletes the series has paid. It came from one paid finish in the men's 5000 m, and it was 8th.
The Diamond League pays by finishing place and nothing else. A published card sets what first through eighth is worth, the same figure in every discipline at that meeting, and ninth pays nothing.
Every payment
Where he finished, and what the card paid for it
| MEETING | DISCIPLINE | PLACE | PAID |
|---|---|---|---|
| Golden Gala Pietro Mennea 2019 | 5000 m | 15th | - |
| Athletissima 2019 | 5000 m | 19th | - |
| Athletissima 2018 | 5000 m | 8th | $1,000 |
| All three | Men's 5000 m | - | $1,000 |
The one paid figure add up because none of them contains another: a place is paid once, at that meeting, so $1,000 is one separate amounts rather than a running total. It is 0.00% of the $113,397,000 the 224 meetings on this site paid out between them. Two of the three starts paid nothing, because the series pays eight deep and the fields run past twenty.
The World Cross Country Championships
What Aron Kifle ran on the grass
| RACE | PLACE | MARK | EARNED | TEAM PAID |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Senior men's race | 71st | 31:21 | - | $4,000 |
Aron Kifle has run one race here and was paid nothing in his own name. Only the first six across the line are, $30,000 for the win down to $3,000 for 6th, and there is no appearance money underneath it. The team he ran on earned Eritrea $4,000, all of it from a team standing, which is settled on the places of the first four runners a country gets home. It is the federation's money rather than his, and it is not added to the $1,000 at the top of this page. The cross country page holds all 10 races across two championships and the $620,000 they paid out.
Season by season
2018 to 2019, in the order it was won
season running total
2018 is the biggest of them, $1,000 from one start. No Diamond League meeting paid Aron Kifle in 2019, so that column stands at nothing. The dimmer column behind each season is the running total, which reaches $1,000.

Frequently asked questions
How much Diamond League prize money has Aron Kifle won?
$1,000, which ranks 3236th of the 3,683 athletes the series has paid across the 224 meetings on this site. It came from one paid finish between 2018 and 2019.
What is Aron Kifle's biggest Diamond League payday?
$1,000, for finishing 8th in the 5000 m at the 2018 Athletissima. The Diamond League pays by place rather than by performance, so that figure is what the card in force that season paid for 8th and would have paid anybody who finished there.
How does the Diamond League decide what Aron Kifle gets paid?
Entirely by where he finishes. The series publishes one rate card a season and applies it to every discipline at every meeting, so a place is worth the same in the men's 5000 m as it is in the shot put on the same afternoon. Eight places are paid and ninth pays nothing. There is no bonus for a record and no share of a gate.
Has Aron Kifle ever raced a Diamond League meeting for nothing?
Two times. The series pays the first eight and the fields run past twenty, so a ninth place is a Diamond League start that paid nothing at all. Those starts are in the result tables on this site either way.
Is this everything Aron Kifle earns from athletics?
No. This is the Diamond League, which is one series of 224 meetings. The World Cross Country Championships money above is separate money from a separate payer, and none of it is added together here. It holds no national federation payment, no appearance fee and no sponsorship. What it does hold is every dollar the series itself paid him, priced off the card it published.

Cross country prize money is the Belgrade 2024 and Tallahassee 2026 championships, $620,000 put up across 10 races, half of it a runner's and half of it a federation's, and the race is on the senior men's race page.
