London Marathon 2018 Winners: Eliud Kipchoge wins as Mo Farah Stay on third.
Britain's Mo Farah takes third at the London Marathon 2018 in a new British record as Eliud Kipchoge won the race for the third time.
Mo Farah added another British record to his long record of titles and accomplishments as he completed third in a fiercely hot London Marathon in 2hr 6min 21sec.
In front of him the Kenyan Eliud Kipchoge was demonstrating once more why he is the best sprinter more than 26.2 miles ever, as he fueled to his third title in
London Marathon and tenth marathon triumph in 11 races.
Everybody realized that with temperatures more than 20C it would be an extreme day. However both Kipchoge and Farah were in a gathering of competitors who set off at a startlingly quick pace and secured the initial 13.1 miles in 61 minutes, well inside the world record of 2hr 02min 57sec.
It was continually setting off to a bleak trial of survival after that. Thus it demonstrated. Obviously it was Kipchoge, the Yoda of separation running, who adapted superior to anything anybody, splitting far from the Ethiopian Tola Kitata after 24 miles to win by 33sec out of 2hr 04min 17sec.
Farah now, incredibly, holds the British records over 1,500m, 3,000m, 5,000m, 10,000m, the half-marathon and the marathon.
