In the 5,000 metres final at the same Olympics, Kedir was leading with 300 metres to go when Ireland's Eamonn Coghlan overtook him. Shortly after that, Kedir moved out to the second lane to let his teammate Miruts Yifter pass him, Yifter did and sprinted past Coghlan. Moments after moving to the second lane, Kedir fell - apparently after colliding with another Ethiopian runner, Yohannes Mohamed. Having lost his rhythm, Kedir finished in the 12th and last place. (See YouTube, 1980 Olympics 5000 metres). Kedir won men's long-distance cross country World Championship in 1982 (see below). His last major international race occurred in Helsinki, Finland, at the 1983 inaugural World Athletics Championships. There he finished ninth at 10,000 metres.
