Cheptegei contributes one of five 2021 world bests on chilly night in Ostrava Wednesday, 19 May 2021 Uganda’s world 5,000 and 10,000 metres record holder Joshua Cheptegei showed he is human after all as he found the 25-year-old 3,000m world record of 7min 20.67sec set by Kenya’s Daniel Komen beyond him at the World Athletics Continental Tour Gold meeting in Ostrava. But his front-running personal best of 7:33.24 was still one of five world bests set on a thoroughly chilly evening at the Městský Stadion in what was the 60 th Golden Spike meeting. The men’s javelin stadium record was better than your average, given that it was set by home thrower and world record holder Jan Zelezny at 94.64 metres.
