Ethiopian athlete Yomif Kejelcha set a new world half marathon record at the Valencia Half Marathon, finishing in 57:30, which is one second faster than the previous record held by Jacob Kiplimo. This victory marks an impressive achievement for the 27-year-old, who completed his sixth half marathon after previously expressing frustration over being snubbed from the Ethiopian Olympic team. Kejelcha credited the race organizers and local supporters for his success, highlighting the challenging wet conditions during the race. In the women's division, Kenya's Agnes Ngetich finished just 11 seconds shy of the world record, clocking 1:03:03, the second-fastest time in history. The podium for the women's race featured Fotyen Tesfay from Ethiopia and Lillian Rengeruk from Kenya, who also recorded outstanding times. Kejelcha's performance further solidifies his status as a top competitor in long-distance running.
