Fastest run 300 metres (male)

The fastest run 300 metres (male) is 30.69 seconds, achieved by Letsile Tebogo (Botswana) in Pretoria, South Africa, on 17 February 2024.

Letsile Tebogo set a new world record over the rarely run distance of 300 m while competing at the Simbine Curro Classic Shoot-Out event. The 300 m is not an official world record distance for World Athletics, who instead monitor “world best” times over the distance.
