Kenya’s Faith Kipyegon poses after setting a new world record in the women’s 5000m race in Paris on Friday.
Kipyegon finished in 14:05.20s after pulling away from Letesenbet Gidey over the final 400m of a spirited battle at Charlety Stadium to break the Ethiopian’s record of 14:06.62s set on Oct 7, 2020, in Valencia. “… when I saw that it was a world record I was so surprised. It was all about giving my best. I just wanted to improve on my personal best, the world record was not my plan.”
Noah Lyles, the American world champion in the 200m, won the men’s 100m in 9.97s, edging Kenyan Ferdinand Omanyala by 0.01s.
