Eliud Kipchoge won the London Marathon for the first time on Sunday, leading home a Kenyan top four ahead of defending champion Wilson Kipsang. The crowd were wonderful and lifted me for my sprint finish.'' In a tight finale, Kipchoge broke clear of Kipsang in the final 800 meters before waving and pointing at the crowd in front of Buckingham Palace as he finished five seconds in front of his compatriot. ''I don't mind the cold weather,'' Kipsang said. ''The crowd kept me going, it was a wonderful atmosphere.'' Kipchoge and Kipsang were followed home in the 35th annual race by Dennis Kimetto and Stanley Biwott.
