There is so much good action to watch for next week, but we picked some of our most-anticipated races.
I’m looking forward to every race that includes Faith Kipyegon, and there will be several opportunities between her 1500 and 5,000-meter double, but the long-distance event is going to be a must-see.one week after breaking the world record in the 1500 meters. For much of the race, the Kenyan runner battled former world record-holder Letesenbet Gidey of Ethiopia until Kipyegon tapped into her lethal closing speed to win in 14:05.20, improving on the previous 14:06.
of all time are headlining the field. While Kipyegon has the upper hand with closing speed, Gidey is more experienced over longer distances with three global titles in the 10,000 meters. They’ll face stiff competition with Sifan Hassan, who is set to triple once again in the 1500, 5,000, and 10,000 meters, two years after claiming Olympic gold in the 5,000 and 10,000 meters for the Netherlands.
