Details.
How did he beat him. Was Lagat close coming into the homestretch?
Rupp went with over a lap to go. He led coming off of the top of the final turn when Lagat pulled even going into the final straight. Lagat then got a step on him with about 40m to go, but Rupp closed on him and got him by a few tenths at the line.
He also got Pre's Trials record.
Pure guts.
