Tirop, Teferi set records

Two world records tumbled yesterday when Kenya’s Agnes Tirop surged to victory in the 10-kilometer race and Ethiopia’s Senbere Teferi triumphed in the 5K at an event in Herzogenaurach, Germany. Tirop won the 10K event in 30 minutes and 1 second, finishing ahead of Sheila Chepkirui and shaving 28 seconds off the record set by Morocco’s Asmae Leghzaoui 19 years ago. In the 5K race, Teferi finished in 14:30, overthrowing the record of 14:44 set by Kenyan Beatrice Chepkoech.
