Kenya's Vivian Cheruiyot smashed her personal best to win her first title in London.

She finished the London Marathon with a stunning  two hours 18mins 31secs before Brigid Kosgel finished in second to make a Kenyan one-two.

It was a huge result for Cheruiyot after she misjudged the race last year, but she's worked ever so hard and come back to run an immaculate race.

David Weir won his EIGHTH London Marathon as managed to come out on top over rival Marcel Hug.

The Weirwolf won in one hour 31min 15sec to take the crown he first won in 2002 and extended his record of victories over 26.2miles.
