Olympic Runner Stopped In Her Semi-Final To Help Her Injured Competitor Finish

One of the most talked-about moments from yesterday was when runners from the U.S. and New Zealand went down during the women’s 5,000 meters. Olympians Nikki Hamblin and Abbey D’Agostino fell and hit the track after a stumble, it was soon clear that D’Agostino was too injured to get back up. As an act of true sportsmanship, New Zealand’s Nikki Hamblin stopped in her women’s 5000 meter semi-final to walk the USA’s injured Abbey D’Agostino to the finish line. Check out the video below
