Jakob Ingebrigtsen was surprisingly taken out in the World Athletics Road Racing Championships 5 km, Saturday, after dominating the World Athletics Ultimate Championship 5 km last week.
It was 21-year-old Eritrean Dawit Seare for the win. Fellow Eritrean 19-year-old Saymon Amanuel took third. In between was Ingebrigtsen of Norway for second. Ingebrigtsen recorded a national road record of 12:59, Seare ran a national road record of 12:56, and Amanuel clocked 13:00 with a shiny new PB.
“Those last 50 metres felt like a lifetime,” said Ingebrigtsen over social media.
The first Danish athlete finished 29th in Joel Ibler Lillesø in a 13:39 season-best performance.
Forty-nine of 51 athletes finished under 15 minutes.
Ingebrigtsen led the race for a spell, but was usurped and surprised by the Eritreans.
Seare finished fourth at the World Road Racing Championships last year. He also won the African Championships this year in the 5000m.
The top women in the 5 km were Ethiopian Likina Amebaw 14:41; Kenyan Caroline Gitonga took second in 14:48, while Rose Davies of Australia took third in an Australian and Oceania record of 14:50. Six finished under 15 minutes.
The first Danish athlete was Juliane Hvid in 15:33. She finished in 20th position.
