After winning here in Doha, the 25-year-old has kick-started a winning streak of his own at the World Athletics Championships. The slight decrease in pace allowed the pack to bunch up slightly with Filip and Jakob Ingebrigtsen taking closer order. More jostling and tripping came with 600 metres remaining as Ahmed was still trying to keep Jakob, Chelimo and Barega at bay. Edris also joins Farah and Ismael Kirui as a multiple winner of the world 5000m title. Barega took silver in 12:59.70 while Ahmed earned bronze in 13:01.11, Canada’s first ever 5000m medal at the World Championships.
