Hassan ran the race in her signature style. She was at the back of the set until the last lap, where she is unlikely to get hacked. She started her sprint from 400 meters and defeated her opponents. In the last 100 metres, I pressed for a while to secure victory in the semi-finals. Kenyan Terupp finished second behind Hassan. Hassan had to finish in the top five or run in one of the top five losing places to qualify.
After her race, Hassan didn’t look happy. She appeared to be holding her thigh, but it is not clear if she had an injury.

Although Hassan has yet to confirm her programme, it is likely that she will also finish in the 10,000m. The 1500m series will be held on the same day as the 5000m final, making it difficult to combine the two distances. She may even run three distances.
Diane Van S did not make it to the final. She had to give up the two favorites in the middle of the group and finished the race in 16th place with a time of 15.47.01.

The 4x400m mixed relay team also qualified for the final. The Dutch national team, accompanied by Jochem Daubert, Lieke Claver, Lisan de Witt and Ramsey Angela finished the race in second place, giving them a place in the final. The time of 3.10.69 was also an improvement for the Dutch record. In the final game tomorrow afternoon, Vickey Paul will likely join. Big favorite America was eliminated in the preliminary round and not in the final
