29.53.80 - Melkamu - second fastest ever 10.000m

June 15, 2009
On June 14th, at 22.15 local time in Utrecht, The Netherlands, Ethiopian Melkamu ran a stellar 10.000m, almost on her own. She ran at WR-pace at 4k, than slowed a bit to finish in 29.53.80. Dutch NOS-station had some shots during the night, including an interview with Arjan Pathmamanoharan, meet-organisor, who states not to make any adjustments to the program in favour of the media and that he wants the best conditions. He got his reward!
