Feb 4, 2012
2016 update: Paul Chelimo has always had a sick kick, but before he was an Olympic silver medalist, he was just "a guy" for whom beating Andy Bayer was a major upset. Check out this 2012 race with a wild finish from Chelimo; he's way behind Bayer with a lap to go, and starts making a huge move around 7:00 into the video. The original description is below.
Indiana's big gun, Andy Bayer, goes for a collegiate leading mark but encounters some company towards the closing meters of the men's 3k at the 2012 Meyo Invite from a guy named Paul Chelimo....watch this finish!!
