Within the post-race interview by LetsRun.com, one of many most interesting this author has ever seen, Grant Fisher let his proverbial hair down and spoke about operating by himself for six minutes and 22 seconds. Grant thanked his two pacers, credited with getting him to the midway level. “Operating these 200 meters on my own felt like 400s… It’s powerful to run 30-second laps by your self..there are just a few on the earth can do this.” Grant Foster has run 3:33.99 PB at 1,500 meters, 7:22.91 WR/AR at 3,000 meters, and now, 5,000 meters in 12:44.09, breaking the WR by 5 seconds, which was held by Kenenisa Bekele (12:49.60) for twenty-one years.
Grant Fisher is a exceptional, distinctive WR breaker and Olympic racer. He is without doubt one of the particular ones; please treasure his race and deep ideas!
