This is confirmed by the head of sports in the Norwegian Athletics Federation, Erlend Slokvik, to news. – It is true that he is not qualified for the EC. Filip has been struggling with an injury after he broke the race at the Bislett Games earlier this year, and it has prevented him from trying to take the claim, says Slokvik. The sports manager says that the gold winner from 2016 had long hoped to meet the EC requirement. Last week he was supposed to have run an event at Bislett, but his injury prevented him from participating. The Sandnes runner had to break the 5,000 meters during the Bislett Games with six rounds to go due to an Achilles injury in June.

I only used one foot, and I’m really disappointed, Filip Ingebrigtsen told news after he broke at Bislett. news has tried to get in touch with Ingebrigtsen, without success. He is currently in St. Moritz and trains with his brothers Jakob and Henrik. – Experienced a lot of trouble Ingebrigtsen lacked enough ranking points to participate and the Achilles injury he has suffered this spring has meant that he has not had the opportunity to run in a time within the EC requirement in time. – It is a shame that he is once again experiencing injury problems and that the two biggest goals for the season, the European Championship and the World Cup, fall short. I feel for him, says news commentator Jann Post. Filip’s previous medal in a championship comes back in 2017 in London when he took bronze in the 1500m. – He has experienced a lot of trouble for many years, and it turns out that continuity in training is difficult to achieve. I am absolutely sure that he has a lot of good running left in his body, says Post. Has struggled after corona vaccine Ingebrigtsen has struggled to get back to top level after he took the corona vaccine last year. – The body simply couldn’t stand training. He has struggled with allergy problems, and he has struggled with even more before he broke through, says Post. DISAPPOINTING OLYMPICS: Filip Ingebrigtsen failed in the trial heat in Tokyo in 2020.
