Africans dominated the Great North Run on Sunday with Kenya's Wilson Kipsang taking the men's title and Ethiopia's Olympic 10,000m champion Tirunesh Dibaba winning the women's race.
The annual half marathon, Britain's biggest mass-participation run, saw Kipsang produce a scintillating sprint finish to beat fellow Kenyan Micah Kogo on the line with a time of 59 minutes six seconds.
