Battling heat and the one of the hottest fields in the eighteen year history of the world championships, Don unleashed the fastest run of the day to beat Athens Olympic gold medallist Hamish Carter from New Zealand for the win. Frenchman Frederic Belaubre won the bronze medal.
“World Champion. Can you believe it!,” exclaimed Don. “I have a good formula for success and that is consistent training. This race was won in training rather than out there today.”
