CARSON (USA): At adidas Track Classic in the menÂ´s 400 m Hurdles the eighth hurdle was set incorrectly, too close to the seventh. That means all marks including world leading 48.38 by Kerron Clement were irregular. Also to add that the surprise win for Aheza Kiros 14:56.33 at 5000 m is a world leader what makes is it still four from the meet.
