If you missed it. Lopez Lomong miscounted the laps (as well as David Torrence). He slammed it home but and celebrated at 4600.
The crowd starting screaming to he started up again. HE got to 4800 and that lap even with a long ass stop was still 59.
His finishing time ? 13:11.
If you don't think he can break 13:00 you are a fool. His 1st 5k ever.
Unreal and so exciting!!!
