That might be the highlight of the games so far, I never have been so transfixed on 10,000 meter race before like that.

Moe is a Brit and the favorite. The story of this race (for us Americans) was the incredible performance of Galen Rupp. This is the first time an American has won a medal in the 10,000 meters since Billy Mills in 1964--48 years ago. A truly historic achievement given the dominance of the Kenyans and Ethiopians in this race.

Great job Galen. Both you and NBC missed what may turn out to be one of the biggest stories of the Olympics.
