A year ago at the Paris Olympics, one-time Cal middle-distance runner Georgia Hunter Bell tried to beat Kenyan legend Faith Kipyegon. On Thursday at another Paris venue, Bell tried to help the three-time gold medalist make history.

Triple Olympic gold medalist Faith Kipyegon will try to become the first woman to run a mile in under four minutes later Thursday in Paris.

Kipyegon ran four laps of the Stade Charléty track in Paris in 4 minutes, 06.42 seconds. The audacious attempt came with the help of sweeping support from Nike, which worked with Kipyegon on every aspect of the run, including designing her a bespoke running suit and track spikes. The company dubbed the attempt Breaking4.
