Comfortable win for the US in the 4x4 heat. Theyâll surely break their Tokyo hoodoo in this event.
How do the Polish have such a good 400m pedigree?
you are inviting a waterfall of WW2 âjokesâ
A lot of schools have an athletics track attached to the playing fields.
This is a fast menâs 5,000. Looking like a sub 13 minute.
Ugandan trying to run fast finish out of Katir
championship running is proper cat and mouse
Have to do it to try and run legs off Katir
Itâs slowing down a bit now though over the last kilometre. Someone needs to up the pace again.
Theyâve burned off Katir. Love to see Cheptegei win it.
Here we go. Any one of 5
55.10 last 400m. Brilliant run and win Cheptegei. Perfect race really from him
Redemption for Cheptegei for the 10,000. He wins in 12.58.15. A 55 second last lap. Great race and tactical championship running.
Uganda wouldnât be that well known for running would they?
Serious finish from Cheptegei.
Steven Kiprotich won the marathon in 2012.
John Akii-Bua won the 400 metres hurdles in Munich in 1972. Theyâve had a few top class distance athletes over the year, but the poorer East African relations to Kenya and Ethiopia.
Some finish for 3rd in that 5k. Tanks completely emptied.
