From the stadium to the roads of Budapest, we saw a full day of action for the penultimate day at the World Championships! Chris Chavez, Kyle Merber, Jasmine Todd and David McCarthy unpack Day 8’s biggest moments. We witnessed U.S. sweeps in both the men’s and women’s 4x100m relays, dominant performances in the men’s pole vault and women’s 5000m, inspirational finishes in the women’s marathon, and lots more.
Some of the highlights of Day 8 include:
– Women’s marathon: Amane Bariso became the marathon champion by running 2:24:23 and led a 1-2 Ethiopian finish with Gotytom Gebreslase + Lindsay Flanagan finished inside the top 10 with a 2:27:47 9th place finish for the U.S.
– Men’s 800m final: Marco Arop made a big move on the final backstretch and came away with the victory in 1:44.24 after placing bronze at last year’s championships.
– Women’s 5000m: With a 14:53.88 finish and a 56.69 last lap, Kipyegon held off Sifan Hassan and Beatrice Chebet to win her 2nd gold medal of the week and first in the 5000m.
– Men’s Pole Vault: Mondo Duplantis won his third straight global pole vault title with a 6.10m leap and just barely missed a world record attempt at 6.22m.
– Men’s 4x100m relay: Team USA took the win in a world-leading 37.38 over Jamaica and Italy + Noah Lyles became a triple gold medalist.
– The U.S. women made it a sprint sweep over Jamaica with a 41.03 championship record + Sha’Carri Richardson picked up her 2nd gold & 3rd medal of the championship.
