    That's actually a different even though, right? He just won his second gold medal.

    That's correct. Two gold medals, so far.

    This was not a time trial but a wheel-to-wheel race. From what little I've heard, with a mile to go Alex broke away from an 8-cycle lead group and won by one second!

    He was as low as 5th at one point but still within a second of the leader. Looks like there was a pack until near the finish.
