Dazza actually ran 60.02 at Tokyo but it is a point to point course so I his time has that little a next to it.

63 minutes ain't exactly slow. Cragg needs to sort out his coaching situation then go for the full marathon again. If he can't crack it then its time to quit
Stormer for Birmingham to get the official Aussie record. The other times were run on point to point courses so don't count

This race was a good one for a "Cragg DNF" but, he finished.

Looks like it might be time to change directions in his career. It happens to everyone.
