Yego attempted to gain qualification for the senior event at the Kenyan World trials 3000 metres steeplechase race, but finished in ninth place.

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.
