"I will see whether they will put me in the team. It is up to the selectors to decide and what I know is that I have to defend my title at the London marathon in 2019," said Cheruiyot.

Despite struggling with a thigh injury prior to New York marathon debut early this month, Cheruiyot showed her class to chase down compatriot Mary Keitany and was honored with a silver medal.

Keitany clocked 2:22:52 with Cheruiyot settling for silver in a time of 2:26:02, the second fastest time ever in the New York marathon history.

Her personal best time is two hours, 18 minutes and 31 seconds from London marathon last year.

"I struggled with an injury for over a month in the build up to New York marathon. It hampered my preparations though (Keitany) Mary was powerful. She deserves the win and I know we will meet again soon. She also knew the course very well and that is a resume I want to build in running marathon," she added.
