Gebrselassie sets two records in one run
Two-time Olympic 10,000-meter champion Haile Gebrselassie broke the world one-hour and 20-kilometer marks at the Golden Spike Grand Prix athletics meeting on Wednesday. The 34-year-old Ethiopian ran 21.285 kilometers in 60 minutes to surpass Mexican Arturo Barrios’s previous mark of 21.101 kilometers, set in La Fleche, France, on March 30, 1991. On the way, he also broke the 20-kilometer world mark of 56 minutes, 55.60 seconds, set by Barrios during his run in 1991. Gebrselassie clocked 56:25.98.

Haile Gebrselassie CPC 2009
Haile aiming for a WR on the half marathon march 2009 in the Hague (CPC loop). Unfortunately he didn’t succeed. The weather conditions probably played a part in that as the wind was pretty heavy. Still a great run to watch, with some beautiful running. I had to bike pretty fast to follow the front field of runners throughout the race to get some nice video footage. Imagine running an interval session of 32-33sec. on 200m. Now keep that pace pace up untill you each 21.1km and you’ll be ending somewhere around WR time (58.33).
