There seemed to be no fatigue at the end of the 3000 meter hurdles for Girma and Kipruto. The two runners sprinted towards each other, and it didn't look as if either of them was going to hook. And neither did it, but both drove all the way into the tile, where Kipruto won at 8.01.35, one hundredth before Girma taking silver.
Bronze trick Soufiane El Bakkali at time 8.03.76.
