Double gold: Tadesse Abraham also helped Switzerland to team honours
TADESSE ABRAHAM won easily in warm and humid conditions despite briefly being directed off course on the twisty circuit. The Eritrean-born athlete, representing Switzerland, broke clear after passing 15km in 43:54 – was 17 seconds clear at 20km and won by 24 seconds in 62:03 despite his five-second detour and easing across the line with a flag.
