A 5:02 fourth mile and 5:00 final mile saw Polley finally catch the leader with 800 meters remaining, and, with his familiar high-turnover, low-knee lift gait, he kicked away to win, clocking an impressive 25:19 over a rolling 8-kilometer course, that has several sandy sections that make maintaining a fast rhythm a challenge.
