The Ugandan guy is doing a great impression of Jim Peters.
Tragic.

Cheptegei is dying hard, I feel for him.
Kamworor ran smart running his own race.
Looks like Chelanga was first US, I believe.

XC equivalent of the Patriots superbowl comeback

Horrible commentary, they completely missed the race developing!
Idiots had him winning 800 out and you could clearly see he was fading and Kamworor charging

Canadian commentator on CBC saw him coming from way back. We are smarter here.
Most exciting race I've ever seen in my pathetic life. KAM IS A BEAST!!!
Pathetic BBC cant even cover the awards ceremony. Thats what happens when Africans win.
Long live XC! Get it in the Olympics
Think the commentary said that the last lap was shade shorter.
Funny to see these guys coming from the cold countries like Denmark and cross the line sweating like pigs and suffering in the heat while all the local area people look like they just had a normal workout barely sweating
Who won team bronze?
That was rather disturbing to watch. When I saw him go through those little hills, it did seem like -wait- he is seriously slowing down, and the announcers at first didn't mention that Kamworwor was pretty close behind on that dip and rise. But I felt a bit sick to my stomach watching that race- of course I was rooting for Kamworor and Kenya. But I would have liked to see a fierce race down the homestretch, not an watch an athlete suffer extreme physical and emotional damage in an attempt just to finish.

I'm actually kind of hoping you are as stupid as this post suggests. I'm sick of EVERYTHING on this site being chalked up to troll attempts!

Bad thing was watching him suffer, good thing he's 20 years old and will rebound to do great things!
