2019 was the year of world titles for Joshua Cheptegei. He’s hoping 2020 will go down as the year of world records.
After claiming his first world titles last year — in cross country and at 10,000 meters on the track — Cheptegei has already broken two world records in 2020. The first, in which he ran 12:51 in Monaco in February to become the first man to run under 13:00 for five kilometers on the roads, drew some headlines...
But his second record of 2020 set the sport on fire. In running 12:35.36 to erase Kenenisa Bekele‘s 16-year-old 5,000-meter world record, Cheptegei took down a mark that had never been seriously challenged and vaulted into a new level of stardom.
