Tahri runs 5:13.47 World best for 2000m Steeple

Bouabdellah Tahri broke the World 2000m Steeplechase best with 5:13.47 on Tomblaine stadium last night (25) during the Meeting Stanislas-Nancy, the 3rd episode of Alma Athlé Tour, the French professional circuit.

The Frenchman who took the silver medal at the 3000m Steeplechase at World Championships last year in Berlin breaking the European record (8:01.18) in the process, chose to start this season just like the successful 2009, with a rarely contested 2000m Steeplechase in Nancy.
