The three Bekele, Kipchoge and Farah have not battled on the roads before

Jon Mulkeen posted an interesting insight on Twitter about the Bekele, Kipchoge and Farah match up on the roads at the London Marathon. This will be their first battle on the roads. But they have clashed before. In 2005 the three battled it out at the World Cross Country with Bekele placing first, Kipchoge fifth and Farah 37th. And once on the track at the 2009 World Championships 5000m: Bekele first, Kipchoge 5th and Farah 7th. The battle on the London's roads is historic. A triple for Bekele?
