Corporate athletes set a record of 3000m to exceed obstacles
In the final of July 20, Jeruto played stably. She led most of the time and only four times dropped to the second, including the last time at 2,600 m. But over the last 400 meters, Chan runs 27 years old Kenya's original breakthrough to go home first. Two Ethiopia athletes followed the following, Werkuha Getache with 8 minutes 54 seconds 61 and Mekides Abebe with 8 minutes 56 seconds 08.
The above results helped Jeruto break the record in the world championship. The old milestone is 8 minutes 57 seconds 84, due to the foot of Kenya Beatrice Chepkoech at Doha on September 30, 2019, lower than the second and third achievements of Getache, Adbe today.
The world record still belongs to Chepkoech, with 8 minutes 44 seconds 32, founded in Monaco in the Diamond League framework on July 20, 2018. Earlier, this record was 8 minutes 52 seconds 78 by the original Bahrain athlete Kenya Ruth Jebet in Paris on August 27, 2016, also within the Diamond League framework. The achievement of Jeruto has just achieved in Oregon, USA today is the third good parameter in the history of 3000m content beyond female obstacles.
"When I started, I was a little hesitant to two friends from Ethiopia, because they were also champions. I had to try my best to go home first. Today's race is really harsh," Jeruto said.
The temperature on Hayward Field, Eugene City, Oregon at the competition at about 33 degrees, hot with the majority of athletes. To reduce heat, many athletes choose to wear a water vest to freeze while waiting for the starting line, wearing sunglasses when playing, and then wearing a cold towel on the shoulder after finishing.
But Jeruto chooses another way to cool and to celebrate his resounding victory. After a while lying out, breathing hard because she was tired, she went to the nearest water pit on the road and then happily down. Not long after, even Getache, Adebe also rushed down.
Last year, despite the world's number one female foot in the content of 3000m beyond obstacles, Jeruto could not compete in the Tokyo Olympic Games. The award took place just when she was carrying out procedures for transferring Kenya to Kazakhstan. Now, Jeruto is the first Kazakhstan athlete to win the world athletics championship.
