No one looked like they could challenge Meb after the first two laps. The gap remained 8-10 seconds after 4k and by 10k I think most everyone watching felt Meb was going to win. Then, out of nowhere, came Tim in the last 400m. This was hands down the most exciting finish of the day. Congrats to Tim on a monster performance. Best of luck in the coming months!
