Nice to see a city of London Thames Hare and Hounds stockbroker runner hanging on to the leading women at the time. Working in the city of London and running 100 miles a week combining a lunchtime run of 5 miles in Green Park and Hyde Park and then an evening session 10 miles, in Richmond Park and Wimbledon Common is no easy feat.
Those good club runners hanging with the best women look like 30:00 minutes to 30:30 10,000 meter runners. Sub elites, but needing to work for a living.
The two Puma athletes Sondre Moen (2:05:48), and French policeman Manu Levisse, hanging on in chase pack.
Levisse, 28:06/61:34/2:09:38 looks set to smash his personal best if he keeps going. He's the son of former French record holder and legend Pierre Levisse, 27:50/1978, and many times top 10 in the world cross-country championships in the late 70s and early 80s.
The younger Levisse was also a star at the University of Portland a few years ago.

Much more inspiring than the YouTube influencer mob.
