Norwegian Jakob Ingebrigtsen shattered the long-standing 3,000 meters (3000m) world record at the Silesia Diamond League meet by more than three seconds.

Ingebrigtsen finished in a time of 7min 17.55 secs, erasing the record set by Kenya’s Daniel Komen in 1996 when he ran 7:20.67 in Rieti, Italy.

Ingebrigtsen’s previous best time over the distance came in September last year when he was nearly three seconds slower than Komen’s mark.

The 23-year-old was in shock when he crossed the line and looked at his time. Ingebrigtsen received a cheque for $50,000 and posed with it in front of the clock.

Three days ago, the Norwegian had exacted a small measure of revenge over American Cole Hocker by winning the men’s 1500m in Lausanne in 3:27.83, two weeks after Hocker shocked the Olympic field to win gold in Paris.
