What is fastest 3k?

The fastest 3K refers to the fastest recorded time in running a distance of 3,000 meters. This record is held by Joshua Cheptegei from Uganda, who set the world record at the Monaco "Wanda Diamond League" event on August 14, 2020, with a time of 7:20.67. This record beat the previous world record, set by Ethiopia's Daniel Komen in 1996, by almost two seconds.

The 3,000-meter race is often run in indoor track and field events or as a distance in cross-country running. It is considered a middle-distance event, requiring a combination of speed, endurance, and strategy.

Other notable runners who have held records or achieved remarkable times in the 3K include Hellen Obiri, who holds the women's world record at 8:18.81, and Kenenisa Bekele, who recorded a time of 7:25.79 in 2007.
