He’s done it! Incredible for @callhawk. Those energy replenishment supplements will taste that little bit sweeter. #londonmarathon #MP4003

[Joe Hird @JosephHird]

https://t.co/9LO97h4Ntr Not quite the race we'd all hoped for. Perhaps an indication of just how good he is when a top 5 finish seems a tad underwhelming.

[BBC Sport @BBCSport]

It’s fifth place for Mo Farah!

'Let's appreciate the Greatest Ever' - Brilliant BBC commentary that does @EliudKipchoge justice. VICTORY for the G.O.A.T #LondonMarathon #MP4003

[Joe Hird @JosephHird]

Little surge from Kipchoge see's him move out infront on his own ahead of Mosinet Geremew and Mule Wasihun. @EliudKipchoge has ran an incredible race. #Londonmarathon #MP4003

This is Callum Hawkins on the floor after collapsing during the 2018 Commonwealth Games Marathon. The man is now on track for his PB and in contention for a top 10 finish. Whatever happens, WHAT A PERFORMANCE #londonmarathon #MP4003

[Joe Hird @JosephHird]

Great race from Mo... but he isn't going to win the race! Eliud Kipchoge leading a 4 way battle at the front. #Londonmarathon #MP4003

[Joe Hird @JosephHird]

Brilliant performance from @charliepurdue 🇬🇧🇬🇧 Finishes in the top 10. #londonmarathon #MP4003
