Sabastian Sawe Breaks Sub-Two-Hour Barrier at London Marathon
Sabastian Sawe became the first person to run a sub-two-hour marathon in a competitive race, finishing the London Marathon in 1:59:30 and beating the previous record by 65 seconds. He attributes his performance to high-mileage altitude training, fueling, and lightweight Adidas shoes, and says faster times could come as he continues to race clean under rigorous anti-doping testing.
