Ingebrigtsen secures double gold and GB athletes enjoy day of redemption

Neil Gourley wins silver in world indoor 1500m final
Georgia Hunter Bell claims bronze in Nanjing

The world indoor championships in Nanjing this year will be remembered as a story of redemption for so many of Britain’s finest athletes, but as is so often the case these days on the track it was Jakob Ingebrigtsen who wrote the script.

The Norwegian went into these championships in China with the chance to emulate the great Haile Gebrselassie by becoming only the second man to win 1500m and 3,000m gold in the same world indoor championships.
