Kenyan Teenager Shatters Road Mile World Record with Stunning Run

Emmanuel Wanyonyi, a 19-year-old teenager from Kenya, broke the road mile world record in Herzogenaurach, Germany with an incredible run of three minutes and 54.56 seconds. This was his competitive debut over the distance and it solidified his place among the top athletes in the world.

Wanyonyi is known for his prowess as an 800-meter runner and had previously won the silver medal in the men’s 800m at the 2023 World Athletics Championship in Budapest, Hungary. His dedication and skill are clear indicators of a promising future in the world of athletics.

His performance has garnered him significant attention within the sports community and he has become a household name in Kenya. The previous world road mile record was set by American athlete Hobbs Kessler with a time of 3 minutes and 56.13 seconds, but Wanyonyi’s record-breaking performance has surpassed that record and cemented his place as one of the fastest runners in the world.
