History was made on the streets of London this morning as Sabastian Sawe became the first person to run a sub-two-hour race.
The Kenyan won this race 12 months ago and successfully defended his title in some style, posting a new world record time of one hour 59 minutes and 30 seconds.
His incredible run wiped 35 seconds off the previous record held by the late Kelvin Kiptum, who did so at the 2023 Chicago Marathon.
