After a grueling hour, there was little to separate the four runners as the finish line approached.
Seconds later, another runner did the same.
He Jie of China then strode ahead of the others, a recorded livestream of Sunday’s Beijing Half Marathon shows.
He took first place with a time of 1 hour 3 minutes 44 seconds.
Mnangat, Keter and Hailu tied for second place, one second later.
