A dogfight awaits as top guns battle for 1,500m honours when the 18th World Athletics Championships start in Eugene, Oregon in USA on Friday, next week.
The medal hopes for Sinclaire Johnson and Grant Fisher just went WAY down. Studs Selemon Barega, Berihu Aregawi, Letesenbet Gidey, and Ejgayehu Taye will all double in the 5k/10k and Gudaf Tsegay has moved to the 1500.
Norway’s Jakob Ingebrigtsen, the Olympic 1500m champion, added
another feather to his cap at the Bislett Games in Oslo tonight as he
earned his first victory in the senior Dream Mile in a national and
Diamond League record of 3min 46.46sec.
