There is no way now Sable can cover up the distance.

Men's 5000m Final

Men's 5000m Final

Hopefully, Sable is not too fatigued after the steeplechase effort in the afternoon. He is lagging behind for now.

Sable is not the fastest in the field but a PB can certainly put him among the medals.

Poor showing by Manju Bala as she finishes last with a throw of 60.96m only.
