Grant Fisher became the first American man to medal in the 5,000m and 10,000m in an Olympic Games after taking bronze in the former event on Saturday.

Fisher also took bronze in the 10,000m on Aug. 2.

It was an incredible effort from Fisher, who was eighth earlier on the final lap, per Jonathan Gault of LetsRun.com.

But Fisher stormed back to make the podium, joining gold-medal winner Jakob Ingebrigtsen of Norway and silver medalist Ronald Kwemoi of Kenya.

Fisher finished with a time of 13:15.13. Last week, Fisher took the bronze in the 10,000m (26:43.46) while Uganda's Joshua Cheptegei won gold and Ethiopia's Berihu Aregawi earned silver. Fisher was also the fourth American man ever to medal in the event.

This year marked Fisher's first-ever Olympic medals. He took ninth in the 5,000m and fifth in the 10,000m three years ago in Tokyo. Fisher improved to sixth in the 5000m and fourth in the 10,000m at the 2022 World Championships.

The 27-year-old Fisher grew up in Michigan and went to school at Stanford, becoming a 12-time All-American. He won the 5,000m during his sophomore year and became the first underclassman in 28 years to accomplish that feat.
