Jakob Ingebrigtsen of Norway breaks the 1500m world record

Russia (bbabo.net), - Norwegians not only perform well at the Winter Olympics in Beijing. Jakob Ingebrigtsen set the indoor lorry world record in the old small town of Lieuven. This was reported in a press release from World Athletics. Moreover, from the old record at the 1500-meter race for the halls, he threw off almost half a second - 3 minutes 30.60 seconds. The case for modern athletics, where the score goes mainly to hundredths, is rare.

Of course, it was not without the help of a "hare" - a runner who picks up the pace, leads the race, and then leaves the race. But such is today's sport. Previously, for a long time, this was forbidden.

Ingebrigsten is only 21 years old. But he is already an Olympic champion and a winner of the European Championships.
