The curtain has come down on the World Athletics Indoor Championships Nanjing 25 after three days of spectacular action.
Once again – the 16th occasion in 20 editions since the championships were inaugurated 40 years ago in 1985 – a Mondo athletics track ensured that the world’s best athletes had the very best conditions at their feet.
Sportflex Super X 720 athletics track in Nanjing’s Cube propelled more than 500 athletes from 117 nations to a myriad of achievements.
Pride of place goes to Ethiopia’s Gudaf Tsegay who produced a thrilling solo performance to win the women’s1500m in a championship record in 3:54.86.
Going straight to the front from the gun, Tsegay went through 400m in a blistering 1:0050 – two seconds quicker than opening 400m in the men’s final! – and then passed 800m in 2:03.44, exactly 2.5 seconds quicker than her split when she set the world short track record of 3:53.07 four years ago in the French town of Lievin.
Tsegay tired slightly over the last two laps but still crossed the line in the fourth fastest indoor time ever.
