Some nut tackled the Brazilian in the lead and he ended up finishing third. I think he would have won.

I think it's pretty BS that he got tackled just 2 miles from the finnish. MAybe there should be dual Gold medals.

It being a marathon kinda makes rerunning the race impossible. Still, the whole "dual gold medal" think tends to set a bad precedent. Before you know it, everyone with even the tiniest complaint will demand dual gold medals.
