On December the 6th, it will be 40 years since we saw one of the great performances in Australian distance running history, when Robert de Castella won the 1981 Fukuoka Marathon in Japan, in a world record of 2.08.18.

Most die hard track fans know of Asbel Kiprop.

The controversial Kenyan was handed a four year doping ban when he tested positive to EPO in 2017. Kipop's ban is set to end in Febuary 2022. He has always maintained his innocence.
