Athletistic/Athletics. Norway’s Jakob Ingebrigtsen has set a new world record in the 3,000 metres, beating his previous best by more than three seconds at the Diamond League competition.

Ingebrigtsen completed the course in 7:17.55, breaking the record set by Kenyan Daniel Komen in 1996 in Rieti, Italy (7:20.67). For this achievement, the athlete received a check for $50,000.

Three days ago, the Norwegian took his revenge on American Cole Hawker by winning the 1500m in Lausanne in 3:27.83, two weeks after Hawker won gold at the Paris Olympics. Let us recall that at the 2024 Olympics, Ingebrigtsen, being the favorite in this discipline, found himself without a medal, taking fourth place with a result of 3:28.24.
