(MENAFN) A London Marathon runner helped an exhausted competitor across the finishing line in an act of sportsmanship that increased his own time.
In detail, Swansea Harriers runner Matthew Rees stopped 300 meters from the finish after he noticed David Wyeth was no longer able to stand.
Mr Rees realised Mr Wyeth would not be able to finish the race so decided to help him complete the final stretch.
The both runners were cheered home by Princes William and Harry and Kate Middleton, Duchess of Cambridge.
