Gabriela DeBues-Stafford added another Canadian track and field record to her growing collection.
The 26-year-old from Toronto used a spectacular finishing kick to win the women's 3,000 metres at the New Balance Indoor Grand Prix on Sunday, crossing the line in eight minutes 33.92 seconds.
DeBues-Stafford, who was fifth in the 1,500 at last summer's Tokyo Olympics, shattered the previous mark of 8:46.50 set by Jessica O'Connell in 2019.
DeBues-Stafford already held the Canadian record in the 1,500, mile and 5,000 metres outdoors, and 1,500, mile and 5,000 indoors.
