It was a shock for running star Jakob Inbrigtsen: While Robert Farken (Leipzig) confidently moved into the semi-finals at the World Athletics World Cup in Tokyo over 1500 meters, the Norwegian dream of the World Cup gold over this route burst.
Inside, however, Achilles tendon injury was plagued by Achilles tendon injury four years ago on this route and had not yet contested any outdoor scale in 2025.
The fact that he was only eighth with 3: 37.84 minutes in his preliminary and was already crashing in the first round was still a bang – he also saw it himself: “Everything is an exam. I tried to do my best to get to the semi -finals. But it was terrible.”
“I will relax and have a good day”
Nevertheless, Inside, in Japan, his gold hat trick over 5000 meters continues to target. “I will relax and have a few good days until I step on again and try again”said the 24-year-old with a view to the preliminary runs about this route on Friday (September 19, 2025 from 1 p.m./Live in the first and in live ticker at Sportschau.de).
A lot of vertebrae around the father
Even the difficult family situation and the vertebrae for the negotiation in summer should not have failed to walk without a trace. Together with some of his siblings, he had taken violence against his own father for his own father. In the end, the seven -fold family Gjert received 15 days in prison on probation and had to pay compensation of the equivalent of around 870 euros. He was acquitted of other accusations such as violence against Jakob Inbrigtsen in summer.
Jakob Ingigtsen is one of the most famous athletes of Scandinavia. It was correspondingly great for his father, who had trained him and more of his ongoing children for a long time until the family break. Gjert Insbrigtsen has always rejected the allegations that they have become physically and mentally violent.
