Ethiopia's Almaz Ayana breaks the world record on the way to Olympic gold in the women's 10,000m at the Rio Games.

Ethiopia's Almaz Ayana has won Olympic gold in the women's 10,000m at the Rio Games, breaking the world record in the process.

The 24-year-old, racing the distance on the track for only the second time, finished in 29 minutes 17.45 seconds, breaking the previous record by over 14 seconds.
