Caroline Nyaga (born 10 July 1993) is a Kenyan long-distance runner. She arrived at the 2022 African Championships without even a pair of suitable running shoes, but after being gifted a pair from Faith Kipyegon, she won a bronze medal in the 5000 metres and then two days later won gold in the 10,000 metres.
