European Athletics is pleased to announce that British hurdler David Greene and Russian marathon runner Liliya Shobukhova have been voted as the European Athletes of the Month for October.
Shobukhova set a Russian marathon record in October and became the third fastest European women ever when she won the Chicago Marathon clocking 2:20.25, which was also the fastest time in the world this year.
The 32-year-old also won the London Marathon in April, in what was then a personal best of 2:22:00, and she has now won her last three outings over the classic distance after also winning in Chicago 12 months ago.
