BARCELONA, Spain, (AP) — Britain's Dwain Chambers has run a meet record of 10.14 seconds in the 100 meters in Barcelona, ahead of Dexter Lee of Jamaica and Michael Rogers of the United States.

Spain's Arturo Casado ran the fastest time in Europe this year in the 1,500 metres, with 3 minutes, 35.02 seconds.
