How the heck did Fisher make up that much ground?!
He measured it out better, other guys went way too hard with 500 to go
I thought he was dead when everyone started kicking, but then at about 200 he turned it on and it was just a matter of whether he would catch them before the finish line.
it has been fantastic this Olympics watching our American men just consistently perform well, run smart, and win medals.
Having these African guys with world leading PRs running that slow of a 5k is one of the biggest wtfs I've seen this Olympics. Maybe they just don't know who Jakob is or that he was in the race?
I think we need to have an honest discussion about the average intelligence levels of Ethiopian runners. These guys are the worst tacticians and wander around talking like NPCs in a video game, even in their native language.
So what's the deal with the Africans? Great finish by Grant but whitey actually dusting them in the final straight? That would never have happened up til recently - is it the increased testing? Do they not care as much anymore?
