At the Dr José Vieira de Carvalho Municipal Stadium, the young Ethiopian Gudaf Tsegay, 24, created the best world performance of the year, winning the Fernanda Ribeiro Gold Gala in the 10,000m in 29 minutes 39 seconds. But it is also the fifth best time in history.
At just 24 years of age, Tsegay has the best world time of the year and the fifth best time ever in the double league. In three months, the Ethiopian has shown that she can perform in virtually every distance in the middle and long distance. Indeed, she marked the start of her 10,000m season with a victory and an excellent time, in anticipation of the Tokyo Olympics this summer.
The events were held without an audience in the stands, due to the Coronavirus pandemic, but were broadcast live on the internet, via the Portuguese Athletics Federation’s channel, FPA TV.
