It’s hard to know what way Ingebrigtsen can run the 1500m now to win…. his finishing is not as good as Kerr in a slower race and now in a fast race he’s beaten too. A few years ago he could burn them off with this strategy but that advantage is gone now. 

How’s his steeplechasing?

Well spoke too soon 

 

By the way, our commentators were making some word play - "If around Rio 2016, someone from the future had told you, that in 2 Olympic cycles, in what athletics discipline Canada will win both the male and female events, you will list out every other discipline before reaching the Hammer throw"  

 

That is how bizarre Canada's progress in this event is seen here, as it has always been associated with the Eastern Bloc.

Long jump, tripe jump, javelin etc. were far worse

It's a nice feeling to tell my disabilititated daughter these girls have to jump over water and see the smile on her face.

Priceless feeling.

Boo, the only nation I don't want to win.

Yavi wins it in sprint finish.

 

Finot somehow finished in 4th but over three secs off the podium. Still 8.58.67 ER.
