      <image:caption>Dutch athlete Sifan Hassan offering water bottle to Ethipoian Yalemzerf Yehualaw at London marathon. This race will be written in the history books for many reasons and has a lesson of grit &amp; determination for ages. Right from the start, Hassan was written off by the commentators as she was limping with pain for most part of the race. At one point, she was nearly hit by the lead motorbike while trying to get to her water bottle. She realised her rival Yehualaw had missed her bottle. So she offered water to her while trying to catchup with her competitors. Eventually, Sifan who was running her debut marathon won the race. I wrote about it earlier here https://twitter.com/kmr_dilip/status/1650789557468823552</image:caption>

      <image:caption>This was from the dying stages of the Tokyo Olympics men marathon race. Abdi Nageeye of the Netherlands cheering an exhausted Bashir Abdi from Belgium. With less than a kilometre away, it was a three-way battle between them and Kenyan Lawrence Cherono. Nageeye saw Abdi struggling with cramps. He slowed down to cheer and encourage him to close the gap. That helped Abdi to find the lost gear and cross the line to get the Bronze after Nageeye got Silver. Nageyee &amp; Abdi were both born in Somalia and fled the country to become refugee elsewhere for a better life.</image:caption>

And in the final stretch, Sawe overtook Simiu. Simiu realised he can't match up to the pace and made a gesture of smiling at Sawe and giving him a salute.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Spanish athlete Ricardo Rosado stopped before the finish line to assist Kenyan Evans Kimtai to finish before him at Málaga Marathon in Spain. Kiprono was struggling with physical exhaustion and was slowing down. Rosado was right behind him and instead of taking advantage of the situation which is perfectly normal, he slowed down and assisted Kiprono to cross the finish line before him by pushing him. He sacrificed his position and €500 of bonus money.</image:caption>
