The
men's 5,000m final, Sammy Kipketer of Kenya takes it out quickly.
|
#324
Isaac Viciosa (14th, 14:01.32), Adam Goucher (10th, 13:24.00)
and Marius Bakken (9th, 13:22.07) opted not to follow such a
quick pace so early on in the race. |
Kipketer
held a slight lead as he passed through the mile in approximately
4:04. |
#15
Ali Saidi-Sief and #339 Hailu Mekonnen lead the chase pack. |
 |
 |
 |
 |
| Kipketer
continues to lead... |
...But
the pack never let him get too far ahead... |
...And
eventually reeled him in (led by #342 Million Wolde) around
the 3k mark. |
Goucher
looks good as he starts to pick fading runners off. |

|
Despite
being in great shaped headed into this race, Goucher just
wasn't prepared for the race to go out quite so fast.
|
With
two laps to go, Saidi-Sief leads with Richard Limo of Kenya
on his right shoulder. |
With
one to go, it's down to Saidi-Sief, Limo and Wolde. |
Limo
produced a big kick, beating out Saidi-Sief (2nd, 13:02.16)
and Wolde (3rd, 13:03.47). |

Limo

Taking
