SIFAN HASSAN IS ONE OF ONE ๐ณ๐ฑ
After taking bronze in the 5,000m and 10,000m on the track, Sifan Hassan comes out and wins GOLD in the women's marathon in 2:22:55 -- a new Olympic record.
She showed off her track speed and sprinted past world record holder Tigst Assefa ๐ช๐น in the final homestretch.
Easily one of the greatest feats in distance running of all-time.
Assefa takes silver in 2:22:58 and Boston Marathon champion Hellen Obiri ๐ฐ๐ช grabs bronze in 2:23:10.
