The winter world record onslaught continued as Jakob Ingebrgitsen got the indoor 1500 and mile records in one race, Grant Fisher ran 12:44 for his second world record in a week, and then Jacob Kiplimo topped it off with the greatest record of the bunch a 56:42 clocking in the half marathon.

We break it all down before we talk to Yared Nuguse @ 70:26 who held the indoor mile world record for 5 days.
