Below are the top results from the 2017 Payton Jordan distance meet at Stanford. Results with lap splits here.

The big race of the night was the men’s 5000m where Syracuse’s Justyn Knight pulled the huge upset and won the 5000m in 13:17 beating favorite Edward Cheserek by over 7 seconds. In the race, Australian Olympian Sam McEntee and Tanzania’s Gabriel Geay had put some distance on the collegians Knight and Cheserek at the bell, but Knight had more than a little something in reserve as he blasted a 57.6 final lap to edge McEntee for the win, as Cheserek was 4th. In the “B” 5000m, Matt Centrowitz ran 13:48 and Drew Hunter 13:49.
