==Career==
He began training alongside Edwin Soi and made his breakthrough in the 2009 season. After finishing second to Peter Lagat in the 2000 metres steeplechase at the national youth trials he was chosen for the 2009 World Youth Championships in Athletics. There he beat his Kenyan rival in the final stretch of the race, winning the gold medal in a time of 5:25.33 minutes in spite of his poor hurdling technique.〔Martin, David (2009-07-12). (Williams and James achieve unprecedented doubles as Kenya steals the show in middle distance - Day Five - Evening report ). IAAF. Retrieved on 2013-08-24.〕 Yego attempted to gain qualification for the senior event at the Kenyan World trials 3000 metres steeplechase race, but finished in ninth place. A third place finish at the national junior trials the following year meant he missed a berth for the steeplechase at the 2010 World Junior Championships in Athletics.〔(Hillary Yego ). Tilastopaja. Retrieved on 2013-08-24.〕 He ran on the European circuit for the first time that year and set a best of 8:19.50 minutes for third at the KBC Night of Athletics.〔(Hillary Yego ). IAAF.

Yego had his first season as a senior athlete in 2011 and he performed on the major IAAF circuits. He set a meet record at the Colorful Daegu Championships Meeting in May then gained his first top three placing at a IAAF Diamond League race in Shanghai with a personal best of 8:07.71 minutes. He was runner-up at the Golden Spike Ostrava meet and won at the Hanžeković Memorial, but was out of the top three at other Diamond League races.〔 He ranked eighth in the world in the steeplechase that year.〔(2011 World Rankings Men ). ''Track and Field News''. Retrieved on 2013-08-24.〕 He experimented with road running events, running 1:02:26 for the half marathon in 2011 and 2:19:21 hours for the marathon in 2012, but his skills were better suited to the steeplechase. He failed to make the 2012 Olympic team at the Kenyan Trials and did not make the top three at any 2012 IAAF Diamond League meet.〔〔
Yego returned his focus to just the steeplechase in 2013. He was third in Shanghai with a personal best of 8:03.57 minutes and was victorious at the IAAF World Challenge Beijing with a meet record.〔Eder, Larry (2013-05-21).

Retrieved on 2013-08-24.〕 He was third at the Bislett Games but again missed out on the major championship after an eleventh place finish at the Kenyan World Trials.〔 Yego had his first major victory at the DN Galan in August 2013. He won the race ahead of the best steeplechasers of his generation: Paul Kipsiele Koech, Brimin Kiprop Kipruto, Ezekiel Kemboi and Conseslus Kipruto.〔( Diamond League Meetings > DN Galan > 3000 Metres Steeplechase - men ).
