Hassan coming first after tripping is one of the most impressive things I’ve ever seen in sports. Wish it happened in the finals, it would’ve been seen as one of the GOAT Olympic moments

with only 300m to go its incredible, there are only a few people in the world that could possibly recover from a fall like that and reach their top speed and chase down the field

Announcers tryna downplay it

":beli: Yeah, she got up and won. She'll regret it later."

Like she fell on purpose :childplease:

they only say regret because she's doing what no one even attempts the treble - 1500m, 5000m, 10000m

She used alot of energy and she's running the 5000m final later tonight (its morning in tokyo)


its crazy imagine running 1500m at 10am and then 5000m at 940pm

SHe fell down, got up and walked them all down on the last lap!!!!!! :damn:

She gon get gold in the 1500. Her kick is next level.

All these favorites have been running from the back in the heats but they run almost too slow where they gotta go ham just to get through. Gotta conservative energy :yeshrug:
