BRUSSELS, Sept 8 (Reuters) - Norway's Jakob Ingebrigtsen broke a 24-year-old world record in the rarely run 2,000 metres in the Diamond League meeting in Brussels on Friday. "I think I'm at a point in my career where I can challenge all the records as well. Kitaguchi threw a 2023 world-leading distance of 67.38 metres in the final round to secure victory against a strong women's javelin line-up. In the 400 metre hurdles, Dutch world champion Femke Bol destroyed the opposition to set a meeting record of 52.11 seconds.

BUDAPEST, Aug 27 (Reuters) - Jakob Ingebrigtsen of Norway raced to victory in the 5,000 metres on the final day of the World Athletics Championships on Sunday, bouncing back from bitter disappointment in the 1,500m four days earlier. The 22-year-old, who has battled an illness this week, ran down Spain's Mohamed Katir over the final 50 metres to win in 13 minutes 11.30 seconds. "Getting sick is a nightmare," said Ingebrigtsen, gold medallist in the 1,500m at the Tokyo Olympics. Uganda's Oscar Chelimo did not finish, pulling off the track holding his hamstring with two laps to go.

I'm so proud of myself," said Kerr, who ran the race in sunglasses. "I didn't feel like I ran the best race either. We left no stone unturned and if it wasn't a gold medal today, that was the best we could have done. Ingebrigtsen said his legs felt heavy as he was unable to respond to Kerr moving onto his shoulder. Last year Ingebrigtsen recovered to win the 5,000m gold and he has the chance to do that again in Budapest.
