London Marathon 2012: Wheelchair Race Results
Congratulations David Weir on your 6th men’s wheelchair race win!
The Londoner makes a dash with 200m to go to break through the tape in 1:32:23, equalling Tanni Grey-Thompson’s record of six London marathon victories. Only a slight wince from the 32-year-old at the finishing line for a slight indication of the effort needed to win that race. “That was perfectly timed and well executed,” says Grey-Thompson in the commentary box. “It shows that David Weir is in the best form of his life.”
Congratulations Shelly Woods on your victory in the women’s wheelchair race!
“It’s absolutely amazing what Shelly Woods has done today,” says Tanni Grey-Thompson, as the Brit saunters to the finishing line almost three minutes ahead of her nearest rivals, raising her arms in the air and then coolly giving the cameras a wave as she crosses the line. “This is technically the best she has ever pushed,” adds Grey-Thompson.
