Josh Kerr and Sabastian Sawe have made headlines with their remarkable achievements, earning nominations for the Moment of the Year at the World Athletics Awards.

Great Britain's Kerr, 29, shattered the mile world record with a time of 3:42.66 during the London Diamond League in July. He broke the long-standing record of Hicham El Guerrouj by nearly half a second, thrilling the home crowd at the London Stadium.

In April, Kenya's Sawe, 31, achieved a historic feat by becoming the first athlete to complete a competitive marathon in under two hours. He finished the London Marathon in 1:59:30, surpassing the previous record set by Kelvin Kiptum in 2023 by over a minute. Notably, Ethiopia's Yomif Kejelcha also broke the two-hour barrier, finishing second, while Jacob Kiplimo secured third, both exceeding the former marathon record.

Additionally, Botswana's men's 4x400m relay team captured the title at the world relays in front of an enthusiastic home crowd, rounding out the nominations.

The World Athletics Awards will take place in Monaco on 29 November, where various accolades, including Men's and Women's Athlete of the Year and Rising Star, will also be presented.
