TWO wheelchair events produced world records in the athletics stadium. Denmark's Connie Hansen (above) took four seconds off her own world best for the women's 800m when she clocked 1min 55.62sec and Claude Issorat of France won the men's 1500m in 3:13.92, with all the first five beating the old record.
