These times were 🔥🔥🔥
Kosgei had to fight for her victory right to the line in the women’s race. She was one of four women in contention at the four-mile mark, with her fellow Kenyans Fancy Chemutai, Agnes Tirop, and Caroline Chepkoech Kipkirui all with her. The quartet was still together through five miles , and appeared to be too far behind the course record pace to achieve the bonus.
“I think the race for the record is gone on the women’s side, but we have an outstanding race,” said commentator Craig Masback on the NBC Sports Gold broadcast. Tirop was the first to be dropped when Kosgei accelerated with 26 minutes and 45 seconds on the race clock. Looking back a few times, she continued to press the pace and appeared to break away to try for the record alone.BAA 10K nearly two weeks agoKosgei found some extra energy and rejoined the fight. Using the downhill section of the course before the finish, she upped her pace as she and Tirop were shoulder to shoulder and running all out with the finish coming into view.
