Under the bright lights and on the biggest stage, Laura Muir delivered the performance of her life when it mattered most in the women’s 1500m final.
But it was still not enough for a medal.
The Inverness runner finished a gallant fifth in a fierce race at a rocking Stade de France on the final night of athletics at the Olympics.
Muir chased the leaders down the home straight but was unable to reel them in, as Kenya’s Faith Kipyegon won gold and her Team GB teammate Georgia Bell bagged a surprise bronze.
