The only certainty in the men's 5000 was that Bekele's recent speed work has apparently helped. Running hard for the final lap-and-a-half, the 24-year-old pounced to a 12:51.32 world leading victory, more than a second ahead of Kenyan Edwin Soi, who reached the line in 12:52.40, a personal best. Results reported initially in the stadium were clearly incorrect; the revised results, listing Ireland's Alistair Cragg finishing fifth in 12:57.60, are also incorrect, since, according to athlete representative James Templeton, Cragg did not finish the race.

Below are the revised results of the men's 5000 :
1. Kenenisa Bekele, ETH 12:51.32 WL
2. Edwin Cheruiyot Soi, KEN 12:52.40
3. Moses Mosop, KEN 12:54.46
