Kieran Lumb of Vancouver lowered his Canadian record in the men's 3,000 metres for the second time this week, posting a time of seven minutes 36.46 seconds on Sunday at a World Athletics Continental Tour Gold meet in Zagreb, Croatia.
The Vancouver runner was sixth in the men's 3,000-metre race on Sunday in Zagreb, Croatia but, more importantly, lowered the Canadian record for the second time in four days.

While Ahmed moved on to distance running, Lumb told Canadian Running recently the 1,500 will remain his signature race.
