Both athletes finished in identical times of 31:26.5, with Steele getting the victory, check out the great phtoos sequence below.

 

Battle over 6.2 miles and it comes down to a kick....

Step for step trying to recruit those fast twitch fibers...

In full flight...

Time to grit the teeth...

Switching terrain from tar to grass can be tricky....

A quick peek back...

Shalene running out of space....

Victory is within sight...

Inches from victory...

Starting to celebrate...

Breaking the tape...

V is for victory...

Elation... disappointment...
