S2 Ep. 21: London 2012 Olympic Men's 10K: Farah and Rupp Dethrone Bekele (Chip Time Classic)

Who remembers the Nike Oregon Project!? Before the Mo Farah dynasty began, there was this group in Oregon doing crazy workouts under the radar that dared to stand up to the East African dominance at the distance events. At long last, the 2012 Olympics came along for a chance to knock out Kenenisa Bekele - widely known as the greatest track and field distance runner of all-time - who was coming off back to back Gold medals in this event. What happened out there? Who were the favorites going in? What was the legacy of this race? We take a full deep-dive, here on the 10-year anniversary of this historic race.
