Hicham El Guerrouj set the record for the fastest mile with a record of 3:43.13 in July 1999 while racing in Rome. He was trying to beat Noureddine Morceli's record at 3:44.39. While he was racing the second place runner Noah Ngeny also beat Morceli's record with 3:43.40. Because they beat the former record the officials rewarded them with $50,000.
