Elzan Bibić (Serbian Cyrillic: Елзан Бибић; born 8 January 1999) is a Serbian middle and long-distance runner. He won a bronze medal in the U20 category at the 2018 European Cross Country Championships.

Running career

Bibić initially played soccer before training as a distance runner.[3] He won the boys' 3000-meter race at the 2015 European Youth Summer Olympic Festival with a time of 8:50.10.[3]

"I discovered [Elzan] by chance, like dear God sent him. I know everyone else is surprised at his latest results, but I'm not in the slightest. I didn't doubt he was going to win in Tbilisi in the 3000 meters, maybe he could have won in the 1500." -Bibić's coach, Rifat Zilkić in August 2015.[3]

On July 7, 2017, he won a 3000-meter race at a track meet in Zenica, after which he felt knee pain. Shortly afterwards he was diagnosed with damaged ligaments in his knee, his first serious injury.[4]

On September 4, 2018, Bibić ran a personal best of 3:37.79 in the men's 1500 meters at the Hanžeković Memorial meet in Zagreb, finishing in last place among a deep international field led by first place finisher Elijah Manangoi.[5]

Personal life

Bibić was born in Karajukića Bunari, known as the "Siberia" of Serbia due to extremely cold temperatures which are frequently recorded there.[4] Karajukića Bunari is above 1,000 meters in altitude, as it is located on a plateau called Pešter. Bibić went to a medical trade school in his hometown, Novi Pazar.[3] His parents were athletes growing up. His father Murat played soccer and his mother Fatima played volleyball.[3]
