What is this "longest leg" nonsense from the online announcer? They are each 400m.

Ummmm..... Ever hear of Bernard Lagat?
Is that why Farah beat him?
Stepping on the rail on the straight is probably legal - as long as he didn't step over it -- right?

Now you know how we feel with all these global championships in the eastern hemisphere!
Also., I will admit, I think the USA does have a pretty decent national anthem. Has quite a bit of pep. Maybe I'm biased.
It's just as well I missed it live because I'd have smashed the tv. It's been the perfect storm for Centro starting with Elijah Manangoi's injury meaning he couldn't work together with his buddy Asbel. Asbel and Kwemoi are not close so they could have been racing against each other a la Rudisha and Kipketer.
Btw, have I mentioned that Asbel Kiprop is an idiot? 3:50 in an Olympic final. In-effin-credible!

When did this become required? I'm in my 20s and I was taught growing up to just stand at attention during the National anthem.
Yea, if I have a hat on, I take it off and put it on my heart. The hand on the heart during the anthem never has been an expectation. In fact, you should be protected if you defy any sort of expectation for attention during the anthem, as a right of freedom of speech.
Funny (not really) about all these DQs. Thinking about Billy Mills.
I wonder if Lagat will come out for this medal ceremony...
Chelimo is back baby - silver reinstated
Cherimoya reinstated!
Nbc just announced Chelimo reinstated. Silver medal
Chelimo is back in!

Medal ceremony is delayed. For the appeals no doubt. Was scheduled for 22:25 and they've skipped over to W HJ.
"Chelimo"
It's hard to unring the bell as they have done. Would have been much better to ignore the minor infraction to start with. I would be interested in hearing how officials justify ignoring a call they made correctly to start with, even if it was minor and should have been ignored.
