Jones , keen to reclaim the world record Carlos Lopes had taken from him, recorded a first half marathon split in 61:43. Absolutely crazy.

He finished the race in 2 07:13, one second outside the record.

I heard that in one of his marathon victories he ran the first half at 1:55 marathon pace - so even faster than the above.

In the interview he flatly stated that he wasn't at all bothered about missing the record by 1 second. So long as he beat De Castela he was happy.

Download the interview (marathontalk.com - episodes 100 and 101) - skip past the other bits of the show if you like. Interesting stuff.
