Hicham El Guerrouj takes 1 of 2 gold medals at the Athens Olympics

What a special moment at the end. Lagat had just fallen short in his biggest chance to be an Olympic champion (he never won Olympic gold), but he understood how significant and emotional it was for El Gerrouj who should have won the previous two Olympic finals but had to wait 8 years to finally win it. Lagat showed genuine happiness for his great competitor in the true spirit of the Olympics. I'll always admire him for the way he handled this defeat. El Gerrouj deserved to win it by taking it on with 800m to go. Incredibly he would go on later that week to beat the amazing Kenenisa Bekele in Bekele's specialty, the 5000m to cap an incredible career!!

Even more impressive is the fact that almost all the athletes went after the race to pay respect to the greatest middledistance runner of all times. That was a hell of a race and I feel lucky I was able to watch it from the stadium.

Lagat's a mensch. That's why he got on so well when he made the move to America.

@palacerevolution2000 Жыл бұрын

Yes, I always wonder if at some deep level Lagat stopped pushing in those last 10 meters. El Guerrouj won that race b/c he is the GOAT. But I still ask myself if Lagat wanted EG to win. What was the time on Silva's last lap? That man was flying!

El Geurrouj came back from falling in 1996 Atlanta and losing second in Sydney 2000. But winning double gold in this 1500m and later some days the 5000m (Athens 2004). That was a legendary moment. THE GOAT...Hicham el Geurrouj. Fantastic runner. He is still the current world record holder in 1500m.

@sundromos9456 Жыл бұрын

Kenyan blockade, per usual, in the first 600 meters (Lagat a beneficiary)...guarantees that there will runners who waste energy in that first part of the race trying to challenge it, and in the process challenging one another. El G reacts calmly, starting at the back...moving up slowly (I've noticed Jakob I. using this strategy), even if it means running wide for quite awhile. By 800m, he is at the front, carrying himself smoothly in the same rhythm he began the race with. It's all about energy conservation, staying out of dangerous situations, because in the home stretch you'll need that energy.

Bloody hell what was Rui Silva's last lap? He was near dead last at the bell, i remember watching the final with 150m to go when he flew past Estevez and onto heshko's shoulder thinking "Holy s**t, i think Silva might win this!" If he was even mid pack it would have been interesting to see if he would have caught them. He had so much work to do and had to run so wide around everyone.
