The steeplechase is such a great event. You can really see the strain as some of the athletes struggle to get over the last few jumps. When you are giving it your all just to hold pace it is tough to come up with that little bit extra you need for the jump!

Incredible how Kemboi accelerates in the last lap, what a talent! Really curious to see how the race will go in Beijing this year and Rio next. Would like to see Jager for the USA right up there! Hoping to be in Rio myself for the final, what an experience that would be. Will sure be strange being a morning race.

A tip for all, don't aim to be the pacer because you'll lose momentum because you're pressured among other things.Hence why you see the Kenyans for instance just take it easy and take off at the end.Converse energy.

Almost all forms of celebration at an Olympics are fine and highly deserved, but in my opinion running to the outside lane is a tad disrespectful to other competitors.

[@mattchoge686]

***** All the 8 lanes are legit to be run on and there's nothing wrong winning (finishing) on lane one or eight! That happens when you in shape if you are a runner.

[@carlosroa6328]

Gran gesto deportivo del francés con el pequeño keniata.

[@ozenda2]

One thing that I don't understand is that sometimes water obstacle is in the outside and sometimes is in the inside. When its in the outside it seems they have to run more than 3000m.

[@borisstarling7661]

They adjust the start line accordingly, depending on whether the water jump's inside or outside. They run 3000m with regular hurdle spacing whatever happens.
