    Team GB's Mo Farah adds the 5000m gold medal to his 10,000m gold in the Olympic Stadium at the London 2012 Olympic Games (11 August).
    Ethiopia's Dejen Gebremeskel won the silver medal in the event with Kenya's Thomas Pkemei Longosiwa taking bronze.
    Since 1896, athletics has been on the programme of each edition of the Games of the Olympiad. Its presence on the Games programme has allowed its popularity to increase across the world. This popularity was also strengthened by the creation of the IAAF in 1912. Women's events appeared for the first time at the 1928 Olympic Games in Amsterdam, while the men's programme was standardised as of the 1932 Games in Los Angeles. Although at the beginning women were authorised to participate in only some events, today their programme is almost identical to that of the men.

    I was in the stadium with my late father watching this. We had seats up in the second tier looking down on the 100 m start line. The atmosphere was electric. RIP Dad. He always loved the 5000 and 10000 m events.

      anaerobic respiration is the release of a relatively small amount of energy in cells by the breakdown of food substances in the absence of oxygen, it has nothing to do with being stored and 5k athletes would be using aerobic respiration. The reason the athletes who are at the top have such good br is due to their fitness as most would be classed as in a term called bradycardia. Also that they have been training at high altitude which mo farah does the barometric pressure causes them to develop more red blood cells which are needed to supply the muscles with oxygen during races.

    As a African myself its still always crazy to see how incredible African runners at long distance. Some of these runners come from rural parts of their countries where they don't have electricity and running water let alone expensive training facilities like some of these other athletes might have access to. Absolutely incredible.

      +Nia Noel the key is to not give up, at first your legs will hurt because u are not used to it. keep it up, everyone's been there at some point. try walking 500 meters, jog 500 meters... and try increasing the amount of meters you run and reducing the amount you walk. is all about getting trough the part where your legs hurt. If i may suggest, try cycling as well, it will fortify your legs and knees as well...

      +Bloom0to9 This is taken from the live broadcast. There is probably video of the entire race, uninterrupted. This would be available in 2 formats. Firstly, with a retrospective commentary i.e without any of the passion of a live commentary. And secondly, a version without any commentary at all - just general audio from inside the stadium. If you can find them on You Tube then, well done. If you would like to watch someones output from a mobile phone in the stadium, then I know this is available on YT. Here, a director is contractually obliged to broadcast as much of the action from the stadium as possible. The fact that another event was in progress at the same time as the 5000 metres is not unusual due to the packed schedule of track and field events held in the stadium. If you do find the entire 5000m final on You Tube, without interruptions from the High Jump, let me know - and I'll guarantee it'll be in 240p with advertising every 2 minutes. So, take your pick.

      Xisean Anthony Mo Farah is the distance king. He has done all events 1500m and up, and has done exceptional in all of them throughout his professional career. Look at any other athlete's personal record, and compare their's with his, and I guarantee you there's no way you either passed him by tenth's of seconds, you stood close to him but never caught him.

I have nothing against Mo Farsh, but to say he's the best distance runner off all time when Kenenisa Bekele has just as much or probably more credentials then him is hilairous. Like I said earlier Mo is the best right Now, but not the best of all time Yet.

    500m out Mo tells his training partner to hold his line to block. Gallen can' t manage to do it so Mo has to go it alone. He wants to dominate the inside kerb, no one can pass him. The last 400m he is challenged by them all, he kicks ands speeds up 4 or 5 times. He breaks them down one by one and kicks one last time 50m out. He broke their hearts and will, the others ran as teams and had plans in place to nullify Mo.
    This was one of the greatest distance performances of all time. Home olympics, pressure, duress and stress, remember also that he had just won the 10k!

    If Gebremeskel is going for it, he is defenitely taking the 5000 meter in Rio 2016.
    He has improved so much the last years. Ran a 13:12 in 2014..and that was on the road..
