The combined might of the Kenyan team was working to sap his strength and a stumble in the chaos of lapping runners on the last go-round made this year’s 10,000-meter race at the world championships truly memorable.
It almost put a summer of doping allegations hitting his coach and training partner into the back of his mind.
Yet again on Saturday, there was no denying Farah, who is halfway home to a third long-distance double in as many major championships.
