The impeachment inquiry into Donald Trump’s dealings with Ukraine continued in the House of Representatives.

He had cut the subsidies to comply with an agreement with the IMF, which has approved a $4.2bn loan to Ecuador. Critics say subsidising fossil fuels is costly, regressive and environmentally damaging, but it is popular, so many countries do it.

Eliud Kipchoge, a Kenyan runner, became the first person to run a marathon in under two hours, clocking a finishing time of one hour 59 minutes and 40 seconds. He ran at an average speed of just over 21kph (13mph), or 100 metres every 17 seconds. His recorded time at 5,000 metres would have won him gold at every Olympics before 1952, and at 10,000 a gold at every Olympics before 1972. It was not a solo effort; 42 pacemakers helped him maintain his speed until the final straight.
