Jessica Hull’s 2000m world best
Five days after running the fifth fastest 1500m in history with a time of 3:50.83 at the Paris Diamond League, Australia’s Jessica Hull set a new world record in the 2000m at the Herculis EBS Wanda Diamond League meet in Monaco. Hull broke the record finishing in 5:19.70, bettering Burundian Francine Niyonsaba’s previous mark by 1.84 seconds.
Hull was assisted by excellent pacing by Spain’s Esther Guerrero, who led her through the first 1000 metres in 2:39.88. Following Guerrero, Heather Maclean took over as pacemaker until the 1500m mark. Then Hull took over and dropped the field like they are standing still. She was on world’s best pace for almost the entire race and went through 1600m — nine metres short of a mile — at 4:16.65 before finishing in 5:19.70.
Finishing in second place was Great Britain’s Melissa Courtney-Bryant in the time of 5:26.08. Taking third waw Edinah Jebitok from Kenya who clocked a 5:26.09 performance. Eight of the 11 finishers set some sort of best. American Cory Ann McGee set a North American best performance. María Pía Fernández of Uruguay set a South American best. Meanwhile, Courtney-Bryant, Jebitok, Lucia Stafford (Canada), Agatha Guillemot (France) and Marta Garcia (Spain) set new national bests.
The “records” are considered world bests, not world records. World Athletics keeps the number of official records for more common distances. The 2000m is rarely run.

Jacob Ingebrigtsen
Norway’s Jacob Ingebrigtsen has had a lot going on in his life over the past year or so. He split with his father and coach due to abuse and it has become very public. Ingebrigtsen got married and is now a father. Also, he was defeated in consecutive World Athletics Championships in the 1500m distance to two Brits. For Monaco, he was ready and he backed it up with a terrific run.
Ingebrigtsen ran the fourth-fastest 1500m all-time clocking a 3:26.73.
The pacemakers started the race off at a strong pace. They went through 400m in the time of 55.17. Then they went through the 800m at 1:50.666. Ingebrigsten took over at 1200m. Over the final lap, he gapped the all-star field and handily won. Finishing behind him were one-time world champion Timothy Cheruiyot in 3:28.71 and Brian Komen (3:28.80) both of Kenya. Over the final 100m, Ingebrigsten accelerated even more and unnecessarily lent at the tape.
Seven athletes set season bests including Ingebrigtsen, Cheruiyot, Komen, Yared Nuguse of the US, Neil Gourley of Great Britain, Gilje Narve Nordås of Norway and Oliver Hoare of Australia.
