Kenya
Kenyan double-olympic champion, Eliud Kipchoge, won the Tokyo marathon this Sunday.
The 37-year old running legend failed, however, to break his own world record of 2 hours, 1 minute and 39 seconds set in Berlin in 2018.
Last year, Kipchoge also took the Olympic title at the Tokyo Olympics.
In the women's race, 28-year old Kenyan Brigid Kosgei, also a world record holder, won in 2 hours, 16 minutes and 2 seconds.
She had finished second at the Tokyo Olympics behind her compatriot Perez Jepchirchir.
