At the Athens 2004 Olympic Games, Morocco’s Hicham El Guerrouj delivered a masterful performance in the men’s 1500 m final, capturing his long-awaited Olympic gold.
With perfect pacing and a decisive sprint to the line, El Guerrouj secured victory ahead of Bernard Lagat and Rui Silva.
This victory marked the beginning of his historic double — becoming the first man in 80 years to win both the 1500m and 5000m at the same Olympic Games. ✨
