Summary
In last weekend's Berlin Marathon British athlete Scott Overall finished in 5th place in the amazing debut, and Olympic standard, time of 2 hours 10 minutes and 55 seconds. Scott talked Martin through his rather special first marathon. Tom didn't have a baby, but did get out foxed at Leeds parkrun... Kenya selected two of their three Olympic marathon men, creating perhaps the most competitive qualification process in history... and someone nicked Tony's bottle... again!
