Kenyans Win in London

There were fast times in this morning's London Marathon, with Kenyans Mary Keitany and Wilson Kipsang winning women's and men's races in 2:18:36 and 2:04:44, respectively. For a REALLY indepth analysis of the races read this excellent post over at the blog The Science of Sport, written by Ross Tucker and Jonathan Dugas.  For a completely different view of the London Marathon, read this BBC report.

    It was great day in London, my job was erecting the 10km and 15km marks mainly for the elite athletes.
    Didn't see much of the race because I fell asleep in one of the vans having been up all night working.
    surprised that no records were broken the day was chilly and overcast.
