According to the BBC, "Sammy Wanjiru won Kenya's first ever gold in the men's marathon, breaking the Olympic record despite the soaring heat in Beijing. Wanjiru, who was among the leading pack which set the fast early pace, pulled away in the final kilometres to win in 2 hours six minutes and 32 seconds."
This got me thinking about the great Irish marathoner Steve Jones, who set a course record in running a spectacular marathon in Chicago in 1985.
