UPDATE: The youngest of the famed ingebrigtsen running brothers ran 13:29 to break the record, unofficially. (Also how nice is it to see race news again.)
Wednesday’s trial, their first competition of the year, marked the first time both Ingebrigtsen brothers had raced in a road 5K.In July 2019, Jakob broke the Norwegian record in the 5,000 meters on the track when he finished second in 13:02 at the London Diamond League meet. Henrik also ran a 5K personal best on the track last summer when he finished fifth in 13:15 at the KNB Night of Athletics in Heusden, Belgium.
Jakob, the younger of the famed running brothers, is already a three-time European Championships gold medalist and a seven-time national champion. At the 2019 IAAF World Championships in Doha, Qatar, he finished fourth in the 1500 meters and fifth in the 5,000 meters. His last race was in December at the 2019 European Cross Country Championships where he claimed his fourth U20 title.
Henrik won gold in the 1500 meters at the 2012 European Championships and has since earned six medals at the European Championships. He finished 13th overall in the 5,000 meters at the 2019 IAAF World Championships. This content is imported from Instagram.
