London Marathon 2018

Arm warmers Hides the injection marks I suppose

There  should be  a prize for the first non African.

Arm covering must be for compression or to help cooling....they are full of holes.

Cram ramping up Dibaba

Cheriot looking strong !

Mo            6.2

Kipchoge 1.35

Kitata  3.55

Mo 200.0

Russians jamming the pics ?

Mo 3rd....great run !

British record broken !

The winners of the men and women's elites will both pick up $55,000 for crossing the line first.

Second place in each receives $30,000, third gets $22,500, fourth $15,000.

Overall there is $156,500 on offer, with $1,000 up for grabs for 12th place.

A further $100,000 will be awarded to any runner in the men's race who runs a sub-2:05:00 time, and to any runner who bests 2:18:00 in the women's race.

Another $25,000 will be awarded for any competitor that wins the race in a course record time (2:03:05 for the men, 2:17:42 for the women).

If Weir earns his eighth wheelchair title he will take home a record $25,000. The award for winning the wheelchair races has been increased by $5,000 meaning there's now $142,700 on offer overall.

Kitata 2:05:00 .....just misses $100,000 by 1 sec ?

Weir's time was 1hr 31. Bit silly isn't it?

....just different

Why is everyone disrespecting Mohamed by continuing to call him Mo when he kindly asked them not to ?

Seems like he wants it all ways

Tut....well that's just typical of him...will his constant demands never end.

Mo/Sir Mo/Mobot etc now he wants to be known as a muzlym icon can't have it all ways

The male pacemakers for the women's race just seems so wrong and not in the right spirit.
Why can't we see a proper race between top athletes, where tactics play a large part irrelevant of the winning time.
What next?
Mobility Scooters used as pacemakers for the wheelchair race!

Seemingly when offered lots of dough he's happy being Mo
