The Women's 3,000 meter Steeplechase is one of the most recent additions to the Olympic roster, as it was only introduced in 2008. In the past three Summer Olympics, Russia has technically been the most successful nation in this event, with one gold and one bronze medal, while Kenyan athletes have won the most overall medals, with four in total. Kenya's Hyvin Jepkemoi is the only athlete to win multiple medals in this event, with one silver and one bronze. Although the event is relatively new, two athletes have been stripped of medals relating to doping offenses; these were 2012 gold medallist, Yuliya Zaripova, and 2008 bronze medallist, Yekaterina Volkova (both Russian).
