Kenyan Runner records 8: 07.04 in Diamond League in Poland to go to number 2 in the ranking of all time such as Karsten Warholm, Kishane Thompson, Guduf Tsegay and Masai Russell also impress
With 8: 07.04 at Diamond League in Poland on Saturday (August 16), Faith Kipyegon reached less than a second to overcome the controversial and long -winning 3000m record of 3000m of Wang Junxia.
The Chinese corridor registered 8: 06.11 in Beijing in 1993, but the performance is one of the most doubtful books in the records amid accusations that his training group, led by coach Ma Junren, Tok Drugs.
Beatrice Chebet, the 5000m and 10000m world record holder of Kenya, approached the 3000m record this summer with 8: 11.56, but the 1500M holder and the Kipyegon mile record approached even more this weekend, disappeared by narrow.
Kipyegon said: “It’s about Tokyo now. I’m very happy. I wanted to run a longer distance. To be honest, I didn’t see the clock on the finish line because I was very tired.
On a fast -time day, which included the 1: 54.74 of Koley Hodgkinson in an 800m race of the No Diamond League, the female 1500m saw Gudaf Tsegay register the eighth time faster in the history of 3: 50.62.
The first round was 62 seconds, but the second round was incredible 57 seconds when the pacemaker passed through 800m in 1: 59.97 with Tsegay in persecution.
The Ethiopian was clear in the bell, but had a solitary and painful ending. Kipyegon’s world record of 3: 48.68 seemed in danger at one stage, but Tsegay vanished in the stages of the letter to lose the brand.
When giving up the distance from its usual territory of 5000/10000m, the Chebet registered 3: 54.73 in second place, Althegh, never threatened Tsegay for victory.
Third, Georgia Hunter Bell ran 3: 56.00 with Nikki Hiltz American running 3: 56.10 in fourth. Such was the quality, Sarah Healy of Ireland ran 3: 57.95 but it was only ninth.

After losing Tokyo’s selection in the US Championship, Yared Nuguse continued to show a good way in the Diamond League circuit. Here he published a 1500m victory in 3: 33.19, an unusually slow moment in an international metric mile today, and if he wins the final of the Diamond League, he will win a wildcard space in the World Championships.
