Very little was heard about Waldemar Cierpinski between 1977 and 1979, but in 1980 he returned to the Olympic Games in Moscow to defend his Olympic title.
At 36km, Cierpinski surged away and opened a healthy gap, but in the closing stages this was being gradually reduced by Gerard Nijboer (Netherlands).
In the stadium, Cierpinski put the issue beyond doubt, sprinting the final 200m in 33.4sec and winning in 2hr 11min 03sec, thus duplicating the feat of the legendary Ethiopian Abebe Bikila in winning two Olympic marathons.

Als Cierpinski vier Jahre nach seinem ersten Olympiasieg 1976 in Montreal bei den Boykottspielen in Moskau seine Verfolger erneut abgeschüttelt hatte, fiel dem redegewandten Profi nichts anderes ein als dies: "Liebe Zuschauer daheim, liebe Väter zu Hause, haben Sie Mut!
