This morning was the London Marathon, and coming through in an impressive 5th place was Ryan Hall with a time of 2:06:17. He came across the line over 2 minutes faster than he ran last year in the race.
Ryan Hall managed to stay with the leaders through 30 kilometers, and finished just over 1 minute behind Martin Lel who won with a time of 2:05:17.
The women’s race was won by Irina Mikitenko in 2:24:14. Gete Wami fell hard at a water stop late in the race and may have injured her hip but still managed to finish in 3rd in 2:25:37.

Oh man! So close yet so far!! That is so impressive….
Those splits are absolutely amazing. I also read he came through the 5k in 14:21! That’s my PR! And his 10k blew my 10k out of the water…
This was the perfect experience for Ryan, in my opinion. He’ll be super-confident after running such a fast time, but he’ll be hungry after his 5th place finish.
