Swedish runner Isabellah Andersson claimed her third consecutive Stockholmmarathon title when she came home in 2:31:35. The men's race was dominated by the Kenyans who, led by Joseph Langat in 2:12:48, claimed four of the first five places.
Hot favourite Andersson dominated the race and rarely looked troubled and had good lead as she strode into Stockholm's Stadion on Saturday afternoon 5:45 ahead of Aberash Tesfaye from Ethiopia.
Andersson became only the second runner to claim a trio of consecutive titles joining Norwegian star Ingrid Kristiansen who completed the feat in 1980-82.
