2 hrs 8 minutes 38 secs. He had a spring in his step and a smile on his face was he waved to the crowd crossing the line

Kipchoge just ran the last 5 kms at 3km/min pace. I mean what the actual fuck?

And then looks fresh as a farking daisy when he finished.

Beaming. Like he'd just had a Sunday jog in the park

Feel sorry for the Kenyan in 4th.

All of these times are crazy. It’s hard enough to finish one let alone run it in 2:20.

Stark comparison to the Kiwi.

36th, absolutely shagged.

28/105 DNF

[canefan]

Kipchoge literally broke the field

[Chris B.]

Massive effort by Robertson.

I loved that he didn't just go out to run a time, but tried to stick with the lead group for as long as possible and at least put himself in line if a miracle happened to wander along.

He'll have paid for that at the end - collapsing over the line and looking in a bad way - but, he's absolutely buried himself.

If they handed out medals for effort, I'd give him a gold.

Last Honduran runner dragging himself in now. A determined effort!

[canefan]

One of the Japanese runners looked very shoddy. Left leg wasn't working properly, the wheelchair came out pretty fast

[mikedogz]

Robertson ran a Seasons Best so did the best he could. Was straight into a wheel chair.

[mikedogz]

A couple of big crashes at the Velodrome. Kiwi in the Scratch race in the Omnium. Officials taken out too.

Holly EDMONDSTON 9th, 24points. Callum Saunders coming up in Kieran Quarter Final

I could possibly peak at that for a few seconds!
