Last night at the TCS London Marathon, the final runners crossing that 26.2 mile mark got the kind of heroes welcome usually save for. The elites. C-L-I-F bar made it happen, turning the late finish line into a party zone to celebrate every single finisher, since just 1% of folks worldwide, ever tackle a full marathon. Their support crew stuck with those last runners, mile after mile, pumping up the motivation, while volunteers from Cliff and team finish together lit. Upsane James Park, after 7.30 pm, with a red glow track. The crowd roared as the final 10 busted through the official ribbon. The same won the pros snapped earlier. Take Hanna Gavios, a 33-year-old cycle therapist from Queens, who crushed her first London marathon on crutches nearly 10 years after a 150-foot cliff fall in Thailand wrecked her spine.

Then there's Tywo Fablcewa, 26 from Croydon, with cerebral palsy, wheeled to the finish by 14 mates in her debut marathon. A business apprentice, she rode the crowd's energy, urging others, if she can do it with support, so can you. Lucas Grete, 37 from Rotherham, powered through for his late Nan Lin and Macmillan Cancer Support, smashing his first full after halves. CLIF calls these back-of-pack warriors the real chams, fueling that unbreakable spirit, and now the last finisher story beams on London billboards, keeping the vibe alive.
