RIO DE JANEIRO — This is what you should remember: That a cool, misty rain was falling from the night sky over the Olympic Stadium, landing on the blue running track and giving it the look of an icy sidewalk somewhere in the northern winter. That it was a Thursday night and the stadium was nearly full, but not entirely full, because these were the troubled Rio Olympic Games and even when the moment was historic, the setting was often vaguely imperfect. That the runners emerged at 35 minutes past 10 p.m., from the tunnel at one end of the stadium, and then jogged clockwise to the starting line for the half lap of the 200-meter final.
