MARATHON

 In a field of African runners, Australian Michael Shelley has defied expectation and won the marathon gold in an extraordinarily powerful and commanding fashion.

1994 winner Steve Moneghetti ran the final 1000m with Shelley to offer encouragement. 

The silver medallist in Delhi, Shelley was authoritative in taking the lead with five kilometres to go, surging and claiming goldin a time of two hours 11 minutes and 15 seconds - a new personal best time.

Shelley joins Rob De Castella (two-time winner) Steve Moneghetti and Dave Power to win gold in the marathon at the Commonwealth Games.

Jess Trengove claimed the bronze in the women's marathon.

Trengove thought she was running for fourth when she heard the news, from Scots in the crowd, that Michael Shelley had won. Then the crowd yelled out that she was also closing in on the woman in third place.

"Hearing along the way that Shelley had got the gold. I just thought I can do this, go Australia. He certainly helped me to squeeze that little bit extra out of me today," said Trengove.

CYCLING

Matthew Glaetzer took gold in the men's Keirin in a time of 10.465, while Glenn O'Shea took silver in the men's scratch race.
