    I was in the stadium with my late father watching this. We had seats up in the second tier looking down on the 100 m start line. The atmosphere was electric. RIP Dad. He always loved the 5000 and 10000 m events.

      anaerobic respiration is the release of a relatively small amount of energy in cells by the breakdown of food substances in the absence of oxygen, it has nothing to do with being stored and 5k athletes would be using aerobic respiration. The reason the athletes who are at the top have such good br is due to their fitness as most would be classed as in a term called bradycardia. Also that they have been training at high altitude which mo farah does the barometric pressure causes them to develop more red blood cells which are needed to supply the muscles with oxygen during races.

If i may suggest, try cycling as well, it will fortify your legs and knees as well...

      +Bloom0to9 This is taken from the live broadcast. There is probably video of the entire race, uninterrupted. This would be available in 2 formats. Firstly, with a retrospective commentary i.e without any of the passion of a live commentary. And secondly, a version without any commentary at all - just general audio from inside the stadium. If you can find them on You Tube then, well done. If you would like to watch someones output from a mobile phone in the stadium, then I know this is available on YT. Here, a director is contractually obliged to broadcast as much of the action from the stadium as possible. The fact that another event was in progress at the same time as the 5000 metres is not unusual due to the packed schedule of track and field events held in the stadium. If you do find the entire 5000m final on You Tube, without interruptions from the High Jump, let me know - and I'll guarantee it'll be in 240p with advertising every 2 minutes. So, take your pick.

    500m out Mo tells his training partner to hold his line to block. Gallen can' t manage to do it so Mo has to go it alone. He wants to dominate the inside kerb, no one can pass him. The last 400m he is challenged by them all, he kicks ands speeds up 4 or 5 times. He breaks them down one by one and kicks one last time 50m out. He broke their hearts and will, the others ran as teams and had plans in place to nullify Mo.
    This was one of the greatest distance performances of all time. Home olympics, pressure, duress and stress, remember also that he had just won the 10k!
    A excellent performance, the last lap of 52sec and then 5 secs to recover at the end and breathe normally again!!! Brilliant and beautiful in equal measure, a true masterpiece👏👏👏👏

      Xisean Anthony Mo Farah is the distance king. He has done all events 1500m and up, and has done exceptional in all of them throughout his professional career. Look at any other athlete's personal record, and compare their's with his, and I guarantee you there's no way you either passed him by tenth's of seconds, you stood close to him but never caught him.
      He can literally do them all. He could've won the 1500m in the olympics if he actually wanted to.

I have nothing against Mo Farsh, but to say he's the best distance runner off all time when Kenenisa Bekele has just as much or probably more credentials then him is hilairous. Like I said earlier Mo is the best right Now, but not the best of all time Yet.

    I remember watching this live and me and my brother literally fell off the couch watching the last lap because it got so tense when they all got so close to each other. The both screaming “come on Mo!” While still on the floor.
