London Marathon 2022: elite races underway as 42000 start — live (The Guardian)

It turned out Alex Hess relieved me, thanks for that, but this is Daniel back now – just in time to see Yehualaw take a trip. I don't think anyone asks her if ...

The pace, though, is slowing; Paula wondered if, perhaps, Yehualaw has binned her bid for a time and is now focused solely on crossing the line first. The course record is still in jeopardy too. Debrunner now leads the women’s wheelchair by a minute or so. She’ll win by a distance while, back to theme, the Weirwolf is in a group of three fighting for third place. And with 6.1 miles to go in the elite women’s race, Joyciline Jepkosge makes her way to the front. Romanchuk is right on Hug's wheel, which isn’t really etiquette – if you’re that close, you’re meant to attack – but sport is nails and so are these lads. Sisay Lemma, though, the defending champ, looks to be labouring a little. The leading men are still bunched, Abdi and Kipruto leading the way behind two pacemakers. We’re 3.1m from home, and the is going to be some finish … But it’s Gebresilase in front as the women’s lead group drops Melly … He means to win this here and now, while behind him, Abdi and Gebresilase can’t live with the pace! Kipruto has run 2:03.13 this year, third-fastest in the world.

Results and Highlights From the 2022 London Marathon. (runnersworld.com)

The 42nd edition of the World Marathon Major didn't disappoint. Here are all the results and highlights you might have missed.

But Hug was too strong for the American; he powered away to break the tape in a new course record time of 1:24:38. Olympic Marathon Trials finisher was the first American to reach the finish line after running the majority of the race solo in a separate women’s start. Hug took the brunt of the pace until the final turn, where Romanchuk shot to the inside to attempt a pass. Just a few months after running a new personal best of 2:17:35 at Grandma’s Marathon, McCann finished 17th in 2:21:39 on Sunday. His time broke the previous masters record of 2:06:25 set by Ayad Lamdassem of Spain earlier this year. The victory is just her second 26.2 after making a historic debut at the Hamburg Marathon, where she ran 2:17:23 in April. The pacers were prescribed 1:01:45 pace to help the men crack the 2:04 barrier. The Kenyan ran 2:04:39 after breaking the race open at mile 24, which he covered in 4:36. Her victory was all but sealed around mile 24 when the broadcasters announced she split a jaw-dropping 4:43 for the mile split. The pace slowed through 10K and 15K, but the group was still within striking distance of the women’s-only world record (2:17:01) set by After the half marathon split, the top group began to shrink slightly when the pace picked up. Six months after running the fastest debut marathon ever, Yalemzerf Yehualaw won the London Marathon in 2:17:26.
