Description
(Original Caption) Finland's Lasse Viren, running in the final of the Olympic 10,000 meter run for men, hits the track after taking a spill in the 11th lap of the 24 lap race. Viren got off the track and then led that same pack to win a Gold Medal for the event and set both new World and Olympic records for the distance. His time of 27 minutes, 38.4 seconds shaved a full second off the old mark established by Australia's Ron Clarke seven years prior.
