The crowd at Le Charléty gets treated to the excitement of the Men's 3000m Steeplechase. The Star-Studded Field featured seventeen athletes with two Pace Makers, so, a total of nineteen runners, seventeen of them Tokyo 2020 Olympians, nine of them Olympic Finalists, among them: Olympic Champion Soufiane El Bakkali (Morocco), Olympic Bronze Medalist Benjamin Kigen (Kenya), the following runner did not participate in the Tokyo 2020 Olympics, but, nonetheless a runner of high importance: 2016 Olympic Champion as well as the Reigning World Champion Conseslus Kipruto (you must see his resume to believe it, a Supernova indeed).
