FLASH: Sifan Hassan smashed the European 10,000m record at the FBK After Summer Competition in Hengelo, Netherlands, on Saturday (10).

Running alone for more than half the race, the 27-year-old Dutchwoman clocked 29:36.67 to become the fourth fastest woman over the distance all-time. In doing so, she sent a clear indication of the form she’ll be bringing to the start line at the World Athletics Half Marathon Championships in Gdynia, Poland, seven days from now where she’ll be among the strong favourites.
