Kawe secures Marathon win with breakaway
Burton Mail
|April 28, 2025
RUNNING Running his first major marathon, Sabastian Kawe made a solo breakaway with about 10km left and never looked like wavering in the sunshine as he cruised to victory in the London Marathon yesterday.
-
The Kenyan pulled away from a leading group of nine runners about 90 minutes into the race and finished in 2 hours, 2 minutes and 27 seconds.
Jacob Kiplimo, the half-marathon world record holder who was making his full marathon debut, was the only runner able to give chase but could never get close to erasing the gap. The Ugandan finished 70 seconds back in second place.
The 29-year-old Sawe's only previous marathon win came in Valencia in 2024. This was his first start in one of the six marathon “majors” - Tokyo, Boston, London, Berlin, Chicago and New York City - but it's unlikely to be his last.
