Here you can see Meseret Defar from Ethiopia set a World Record in the women’s 5,000 meters as she ran 14:24.53 in the last event of the day. Earlier action did not disappoint as the fastest 100 meter dash by an American on U.S. soil was posted by Justin Gatlin in 9.87 seconds. A strong field in the mile brought ten men under the four minute mark with Rashid Ramzi taking the top spot. Marion Jones competed for just the third time of the year in winning the 100 meters. This DVD is for sale from the USATF where you can also go for a complete listing of results.
