    Gudaf Tsegay of Ethiopia has led this very quick pace and is still the front runner.

    700m down, 800m to go.

    It has been a very fast final, which seems to be suiting Faith Kipyegon.

    Laura Muir has a lot of ground to make up, but Georgia Bell is in touch with the leaders.

    A dream GB's Bell had given up onpublished at 19:16 British Summer Time 10 August

    Georgia Bell had long given up on her Olympic dream, quitting the sport in 2017 and only rediscovering her love for running during the pandemic.

    Seeing continuous improvement she chose to get back in contact with former coach Trevor Painter, the man who, alongside wife and world 800m medallist Jenny Meadows, has helped guide Keely Hodgkinson to Olympic gold.

    The progress she had made since, despite holding down a full-time job, has been remarkable.

    The 30-year-old beat Laura Muir to the British title in June to secure her Olympic debut, having taken a summer sabbatical from work to pursue a dream that seemed unlikely even at the start of this year.

    How ill she handle her first Olympic final?

    Laura Muir reckons she has "nothing to lose" as she bids to go one better than her Tokyo Olympic silver in the 1500m.

    It's three years since the 31-year-old became the first Scot to claim an individual track and field medal in 33 years but she concedes that the quality of athlete in the event has exploded since then.

    “I have got nothing to lose," said Muir, who broke her own British record in Paris earlier this month. "I can come away from the Games knowing I am still an Olympic silver medallist.

    "I want to win another one and I am running faster, but the event has moved on again which is crazy. We have had so many world records since Tokyo.

    "It is a privilege to be part of that, but there are an awful lot of fast athletes out there, including me. I am not going to rule anything out."

    After a heavy crash in the final repechage heat for Kwesi Browne of the Trinidad and Tobago earlier, they are just preparing to re-run that race.

    It's now down to three to battle it out for two spots in the quarter-finals.

    Canada's James Hedgcock picks up the win and he'll be joined in the next round by Colombia's David Ortega.

    It was nothing but pain and disappointment [for Jakob Ingebrigtsen] in the 1500m but his celebration, his cruise to the line in the 5000m and finally he gets to ring that bell.

    What an absolutely stunning response that is from Jakob Ingebrigtsen.

    After missing out on the 1500m medals following a titanic battle with Great Britain's Josh Kerr at the head of a race, which saw American Cole Hocker claim gold, the Norwegian returns to the track to blow away the competition and take the 5,000m title.

    An incredible move on the last lap, producing a devastating injection of pace, leaves him clear of a stellar field.

    He's back, and in style.

    Before Caden Cunningham goes for gold, Britain's Rebecca McGowan will try and set herself up for a shot at bronze.

    She was left in tears earlier after being totally outclassed by Svetlana Osipova of Uzbekistan in the quarter-finals.

    However, Osipova has since gone on to reach the gold medal match - meaning that McGowan will go into the repechage fight.

    Win that, and she goes through to the bronze medal match, and gives herself a shot at taking home a medal from Paris.

    Jakob Ingebrigtsen muffed up the men's 1500m, but the Norwegian takes the gold here by a country mile. He turned on the after-burners in the final 500m and no-one had an answer.

    Ronald Kwemoi of Kenya gets silver, with bronze going to USA and Grent Fisher.

    GB's George Mills finishes 21st having been left behind as the pace quickened.
