Let’s be honest, with a field like this he wasn’t going to lose. 

He was always the overwhelming favourite, but the 5k runners had one shot to beat him, which was to take it out much harder. They have played even more into the 1500 runners in the field.

Sadly I'm so old the names Henrik Larsson and Paul McGrath don't compute with athletics for me anymore

Two of my favourite footballers

Plus nobody from Edinburgh in the field; always the decisive faxtor.

Only 1 non-European gets a medal in the 5000, which is a welcomed outcome.
