Dutch runner Sifan Hassan broke the women's 10,000m world record by more than 10 seconds on Sunday.

Hassan, 28, ran 29 minutes 06.82 seconds at the FBK Games in Hengelo, the Netherlands, to beat the time of 29:17.45 set by Ethiopia's Almaz Ayana at the 2016 Olympics.

"To run this world record here today in Hengelo is something I could only dream of," said Ethiopia-born Hassan.

"I am so happy to share this record in front of my Dutch fans."

Huge part left out of this piece is what she is wearing, Nike ZoomX Dragonfly spikes. These yokes seem to be causing a seismic shift. Kinda like when golf drivers and tennis rackets went from wood to better materials etc, those wearing them seem to have a big advantage over those who are not.
