“Kongen og løperen: Jakob Ingebrigtsen og Narve Gilje Nordås”
admin
Narve Gilje Nordås won his first Diamond League race in Stockholm on the tough 3000 meter event.
He showed strong form earlier in the week with a time of 3:34.86 on Bislett track with only one shoe.
Jacob Ingebrigtsen also won a race on Thursday, marking his first win of the year.
Cameras captured a moment of sportsmanship between the two top Norwegian mid-distance runners after their races.
Despite a tense relationship in the past, Nordås has kept Gjert Ingebrigtsen as his coach amidst ongoing legal issues.
The win in Stockholm indicates Nordås is in top form for the upcoming European Championships in Rome.
He ran a time of 7:33.49 in the 3000 meter race, the second-fastest time ever by a Norwegian.
Nordås is expected to compete in both the 1500 and 5000 meter races at the European Championships, setting up a potentially thrilling battle with Jakob Ingebrigtsen.
