It’s the final night of action on the track in Rio on Saturday. With the men’s marathon closing out the Games on Sunday morning, there are still seven events in which to hand out gold on the last night in the Olympic stadium.

Allyson Felix and the 4x400 relay take the track after Mo Farah goes for double gold in the 5,000 meters.
Allyson Felix, who came up just short in her run for individual gold in the 400 meters thanks to a dive from Shaunae Miller of the Bahamas, will lead Team USA in the 4x400 relay to race for Olympic gold. The men’s team, led by 400-meter bronze medalist LaShawn Merritt, races, too.
Mo Farah, who already won the 10,000 meters, will race the 5,000 in hopes of completing the 10K/5K double at consecutive Games. Bernard Lagat, the track team’s oldest male Olympian at 41, will race in his fifth Olympics, leading the U.S. men in the event.
In the middle-distance events, Matthew Centrowitz, Jr., and Kate Grace are the United States’ best hopes at a medal in the men’s 1500 and women’s 800, respectively. Vashti Cunningham will chase a medal in the high jump -- at 18, the daughter of NFL great Randall Cunningham has a bright future in front of her.
