Cheptegei looked so happy for fisher. What a run
3 colours for the US in 60 years
I feel bad for Kejelcha
Looks like that 28% chance has already turned up💪💪

Yeah I stand behind this
Great run from Fisher. I do wonder if he could've finished slightly better if he was slightly earlier with an aggressive move. Seemed like between the other finishers and the lapped runners in lane 2, he got a little boxed/constrained as the kick ramped up in the last lap. Including by guys that he passed, like Kiplimo and Ahmed.

Cheptegei is the 2nd best 10,000m runner of all time. Wow.
He is on a different level and made it look easy.
was rupps performance better than fischers?
In Paris but not at the stadium. They were showing soccer and BMX racing on the two channels showing the game. Thanks LRC for the updates.

To get the respect of Chep and the elite is huge for American distance running. Grant elevating the game.

I wish he had a 2nd chance in the 5,000. Ethiopia admins suck.
Just a fantastic race. Maybe the most riveting 10,000 I’ve ever seen. I’m so happy for Grant! And Cheptegei has definitely cemented his place in history.

Unreal.
Unfortunately, Kejelcha baffled again.
I don’t ever want to hear JACK from Kejelcha ever again about getting picked / not getting picked for the Ethiopian team. His track record at championship meets speaks for itself.
The Ethiopians got way too cute.
All that talking and posturing during the race like they’re in total control. oops!
10,000 was just a fantastic race. I was able to watch without commercials. The event has a poor reputation but it really was a brilliant event from start to finish. What a day for Fisher and US distance.
