Ethiopian sprinter Letesenbet Gidey has registered a new world record in the half-marathon, completing the race in 62 minutes and 52 seconds. Ruth Chepngetich held the previous record, finishing the half-marathon in 64 minutes and 2 seconds. Gidey also won a bronze in 10,000m during the Tokyo Olympics. Meanwhile, her compatriot Yalemzerf Yehualaw also passed the older threshold set by Ruth, finishing second to Gidey.

I'm so happy to break the world record in my first half marathon.
