    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.

    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.

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