OSLO: World half-marathon champion Berhane Adere ran the second fastest women’s 5,000m ever on Friday to lead an Ethiopian clean sweep at the Bislett Games Golden League meeting.
Adere, the world indoor 3,000m record holder, clocked 14:29.32 in the first of the season’s six Golden League meetings with a blistering sprint finish that left her just a second off the world record set by China’s Bo Jiang in 1997.
