Story summary

In the World Road Running Championships held in Copenhagen, Norway's Olympic champion Jakob Ingebrigtsen, who was competing just eight days after winning the 5,000m at the Ultimate Athletics Championships in Budapest, narrowly lost to Eritrea’s Dawit Seare in a closely contested men's 5km race. Seare managed to overtake Ingebrigtsen in the final stages of the race and secured gold with a time of 12:56 minutes, while Amanuel from Eritrea took bronze. Ingebrigtsen’s performance was particularly remarkable given that he had only run six races throughout an injury-marred season. On the women's side, Ethiopia's Likina Amebaw claimed victory in the 5km event with a dominant time of 14:41, just days after her significant $150,000 win in Budapest.
