Ugandan runner Kenneth Kiprop has won a bronze medal in the men’s 5000m race at the World Athletics U20 Championships Lima 24.

The men’s 5000m proved a very different race, with some early moves proving inconsequential and the final boiling down to a sprint finish, with seven clustered together at the bell.

As the contenders hit full speed on the final turn it was Kenya’s Andrew Kiptoo Alamisi who soon took flight like a bird, soaring to victory in 13:41.14.

Ethiopia’s Abdisa Fayisa came second with 13:41.56 and Uganda’s Keneth Kiprop third with 13:41.73.

Kiprop’s teammate Samuel Simba Cherop finished 5th with 13:44:42 in the race held in the Peruvian capital.

Australia reigned supreme in the mixed 4x400m final, their quartet of Jordan Gilbert, Bella Pasquali, Jack Deguara and Sophia Gregorevic controlling the race and hitting the line comfortably in front in an Oceanian record of 3:19.27.

Poland claimed silver in 3:20.44 with China coming through strongly for bronze in 3:21.27 courtesy of a big final leg from Liu Yinglan.
