No doubt about who carried off the top honours in the BMW Berlin-Marathon on Sunday since Ethiopians won the men’s and women’s title. It was, however, a day of disappointment for Kenenisa Bekele by his own superlative standards. Guye Adola won the men’s crown, running 2:05:45 to finish ahead...

The London Marathon was the brainchild of 1956 Olympic steeplechase champion, Chris Brasher, who had witnessed the success of the New York, Boston and Chicago marathons in the US, and saw the potential of a mass-participation running events and set his sights on producing something special - both for British and international elite athletes, and the running community at large.
This year sees a very classy field. In the men's we have a number of the all-time fastest marathoners competing. Favourite for the race would be Birhanu Legese, who was second behind Kenenisa Bekele in his epic near world record in Berlin two years ago, where he ran 2.02.48. Part of the Jos Hermens stable of elite runners, he is very much a marathon specialist. He hasn't done much at major championship level, but has some very fast times under his belt and is consistent.
