The 43rd London Marathon turns out to be a day of records.
Kenyan Kelvin Kiptum at his only 2nd marathon clocks the
2nd best time ever run. After 2:01:25 he misses Kipchoge's world
record by just 18 seconds. Obviously this is a new London
Marathon course record.
Another course record was set by Marcel Hug (SUI) in the
wheelchair race in 1:23:44.

second time is Madison de Rosaria (AUS).

ever and after New York and Paris the third biggest one world
wide.
90-year-old David Picksley (GBR) finished successfully after
7:16:46.
58,015 numbers had been issued, thereof 41.8% to women. 29.9%

Deeply saddened the London Marathon has to report the sudden
death of Steve Shanks (45). Steve was a highly
experienced runner and completed the marathon sub 3 hours in
2:53. He passed away shortly after the race on his way home to
Nottinghamshire. It is the 14th fatality during the 43 years of
London Marathon history.
