		It was last year that the Moroccan World record holder at 1500m and the Mile first announced his attempt at an historic double in Paris, and he is maintaining his resolve despite the fact that the heats of the 5000m take place the day after the 1500m final.
		Nurmi, the World record holder (3:52.6 on June 19, 1924 in Helsinki) in the 1500m, did so with ease; his margin of victory was 1.4 seconds, despite slowing down in the closing stages of the race.
		It should be noted that, Norpoth had thus finished third in the 1500m and second in the 5000m.
