It was his marathon debut, and he ran the same time as Kipchoge did- 1.59.41. I think that he could break Sawe's record in the future. I think many fans of athletics will remember Kejelcha for all his achievements within the sport. He is one of the more recognisable names to fans who follow track and field, cross country and road running. But I get what you mean- running Sub 2 and not winning must hurt.
And the womens record also got broken! Something in the air down in London!?
Don't know but it was a truly lovely day down here today - calm, no wind, hazy sunshine, acceptable pollen levels.....they're an inspiring lot, those runners, all of them
