FLORENCE EYES LONDON GLORY: Kiplagat plans new personal best time in marathon

Twice in as many attempts in 2014, World Half-Marathon record holder Florence Kiplagat let the title slip through her fingers with the finish line in sight, owing to her poor final kick.

In last year’s London Marathon, she had planned well for the assault on the title, but a poor finishing sprint saw her namesake Edna Kiplagat edge her out.
