Kenyan athlete Sabastian Sawe has become the first person to run a sub-two-hour marathon in a competitive race, winning the London Marathon in 1:59:30. The 30-year-old’s time broke the previous world record of 2:00:35, set by the late Kelvin Kiptum in 2023, by over a minute. While Eliud Kipchoge broke the two-hour barrier in 2019, Sawe’s performance is the first to be achieved in a sanctioned, record-eligible competition.

Already on a world record pace as he crossed the halfway mark in 1:00:29, Sawe was able to speed up over the second half of the race to run even faster than Kipchoge's time.

Sawe made his decisive move before the final 10km, with only debutant Yomif Kejelcha able to cover his surge off the front.

Remarkably, Kejelcha became the second man to run under two hours in race conditions, finishing runner-up in 1:59:41.
