1st place: Marcel Hug (SUI)
On the race:
"It was a tough race in the toughest conditions. I had to try everything to make a break."
On his Boston Marathon injury:
"I was injured after the race. I was feeling good training, but it was a little worse than I expected."
On recovery:
"You just get used to it. I have a good sleep and I'm ready to go again."
On prize money parity for para athletes:
"It's a great feeling and a real privilege. I'm now going to get some rest and relax, and get ready to go again!"
2nd place: Daniel Romanchuk (USA)
On the race:
"There were lots of tactics at play, it was an evaluation situation when deciding the next move. It was a little different being in a group of four, it kept things interesting."
On prize money parity for para athletes:
"For London to offer the equal prize takes things to a new level for marathons. I'm excited for what's next."
3rd place: David Weir (GBR)
On the race:
"It was the toughest race I've ever done, but better than I planned.
"I got dropped at Cutty Sark when Marcel Hug broke away as I didn't expect that. It was hard to pull back due to windy conditions. I wasn't sure I was going to make it back at Tower Bridge, but I kept pushing. Marcel's surges were tough."
On his new chair:
"It makes a massive difference as I stayed with Marcel for 20 minutes this time. I only lasted 3.14 miles last time."
On his 25th consecutive TCS London Marathon:
"I'm amazed. I can't think of any other athlete in any other sport that has managed this. I advise my academy athletes, especially the young ones, not to over-train if they want a lifetime of racing. I'm 45 and still enjoying it. My parents never over-pushed me."
