The events were weird. The spectators were weirder. But there was a real, honest-to-goodness track meet inside empty Nyayo Stadium in Nairobi and Bislett Stadium in Oslo, Norway, on Thursday night.
And it featured an incredible 4:50.04 European record in the 2,000m by 19-year-old Jakob Ingebrigtsen, who remains a remarkable talent, global pandemic or not.
