2017 World Championships in Athletics – Men's marathon men's marathon at the 2017 World Championships in Athletics was held on 6 August , starting and finishing on Tower Bridge .Summary The race started off with a tight pack running at a leisurely pace. 10 kilometres into the race, the British crowds were pleased to see Callum Hawkins in the lead, but there were 59 others in the lead pack. By 15 kilometres there were still 31 and by half way only another three had started to fall off the back. Then the racing began as a small group went off the front including the entire Kenyan team, a Kenyan Turkish transplant, two Ethiopians, two Eritreans, Alphonce Simbu from Tanzania and Hawkins. Of that group, Geoffrey Kirui , Tamirat Tola and Gideon Kipketer were pushing the pace as a three man pack. Kipketer faltered and it was a two man race with Simbu breaking off the front of the second pack. About 10 kilometres from the finish, Tola tried to break away . But the one breaking was Tola as Kirui came back and then set off on his own. Over the last seven kilometres, Kirui opened up almost a minute and half of daylight, comfortably crossing the line for the gold. Tola struggled to successfully hold off Simbu to keep silver while an inspired Hawkins picked up the pieces and finished a strong fourth just 26 seconds back.Records Before the competition records were as follows:Record Athlete Date Location World 2:02:57 Dennis Kipruto Kimetto28 Sep 2014 Berlin , Germany Championship 2:06:54 Abel Kirui 22 Aug 2009 Berlin, Germany World leading 2:03:58 Wilson Kipsang Kiprotich26 Feb 2017 Tokyo , Japan African 2:02:57 Dennis Kipruto Kimetto 28 Sep 2014 Berlin, Germany Asian 2:06:16 Toshinari Takaoka 13 Oct 2002 Chicago , United States NACAC 2:05:38 Khalid Khannouchi 14 Apr 2002 London , Great Britain South American 2:06:05 Ronaldo da Costa Berlin, Germany European 2:06:36 Benoit Zwierzchiewski 6 Apr 2003 Paris , France Oceanian 2:07:51 Robert de Castella 21 Apr 1986 Boston , United States
