SAINT-DENIS, France — Eight days after he took bronze in the men’s 10,000 meters, American Grant Fisher repeated the feat in the 5,000.
Fisher, who started the final lap in ninth place, charged past six other runners in the final 250 meters of the race, overtaking Dominic Lokinyomo Lobalu of the Refugee Olympic Team for bronze in the final 10 meters.
Norway’s Jakob Ingebrigtsen won gold 13:13.66, pulling away from the rest of the contenders on the final lap to avenge his disappointing fourth-place finish in the men’s 1500 meters earlier this week. Ronald Kwemoi of Kenya secured silver in 13:15.04, holding off the late-charging Fisher by just nine hundredths of a second. Fisher crossed in 13:15.13.
Fisher is the first American man to medal in both the 5,000 and 10,000 at an Olympic Games. He was the first American to medal in the 10,000 since Galen Rupp in London 2012. American Paul Chelimo won silver in Rio in the 5,000 and bronze in Tokyo.
