22.5726 88.3639

Kenenisa Bekele finished his 2017 racing with a win but fell short of his personal best after breaking away in the 19th kilometre. Bekele’s best of 1:12:47 was set en route in the 2016 Berlin Marathon (which he won in 2:03:02) but a slow early pace, hovering around 3mins/km, ruled out any improvement.

Bekele had briefly drifted off the back of the lead pack around 12km when his compatriot Asefa Diro went through seven seconds ahead of him. But he soon got back on level terms before surging away just after 18km and leaving his pursuers in disarray. In this first international edition of the race he improved the course record by nearly 3.5 minutes. Leading local runner Avinesh Sable, in fourth, ran a national record.

The women’s race still had four in contention at 23km: Helah Kiprop, Tanzanian Failuna Matanga and the Ethiopian pair of Degitu Azimeraw and Dibabe Kuma. With little over a kilometre to run Kuma dropped back and with 600m to go Azimeraw, in her first ever international race, sprinted for home to drop first the diminutive Matanga and then the ever-tenacious Kiprop. In fifth place emerging local star Loganathan Suriya continued her run of fine form to set another national record following her 1:10:29 at the Airtel Delhi Half Marathon last month.

Kobe Marathon, Japan

Sun 19 November 2017

34.6901 135.196

The race started at city hall and finished at the center of Port Island while good weather prevailed.

A special ceremony was staged just before the start: “Raise hands with yellow gloves” which was observed by all participants and organizing teams. The raised yellow gloves represented sunflowers which are the symbol of reconstruction following the Great Earthquake which destroyed Kobe and left 6400 dead when it struck 22 years ago. A moment of silence was observed as a prayer for the victims and for the safe conduct of the race.

The men’s winner was Khalil Lemciyeh (MAR) in 2:12:49 and the women’s winner Maegan Krifchin (USA) with 2:33:14. Both set new course records. There were 19,709 starters and 18,949 finished.

Airtel Delhi Half Marathon, India

Sun 19 November 2017

28.6353 77.225

Birhanu Legese regained the title he won two years ago after pulling away in the final 500m. 1000m World and Olympic champion Almaz Ayana won her debut half marathon.

Entering the final kilometre any of five men could have won and all five went under the hour with another four under 61 minutes. World Marathon Champion Geoffrey Kirui had his first race since winning his world title and slipped out of contention late in the race.

Ayana, like Legese, only got away from her compatriot Abebel Yeshaneh in the last kilometre. Yeshaneh finished second for the second time in a row but improved her personal best by 33 seconds. Loganathan Suriya, in eighth, finished in an Indian half marathon record of 1:10:29, breaking the record set by Lalita Babar in this same race in 2015 by 33 seconds.

Monterey Bay Half Marathon, United States

Sun 12 November 2017

36.45 -121.84

A large, enthusiastic crowd lining the finish line erupted as Daniel Tapia became the first-ever Monterey County native to win the 15-year-old event. Tapia grew up in nearby Prunedale and ran a personal best to beat runner-up Futsum Zienasellassie, a six-time All-American at Northern Arizona University, in his debut half marathon.

Tapia also bested the women’s winner to nearly double his prize money in the battle-of-the-sexes “Equalizer Challenge”. Female elites started the race 9:05 ahead but Tapia caught the leading woman, Monicah Ngige (KEN) who was also making her debut at the distance, in the final stages.

31-year old Tapia was runner-up last year four seconds behind the winner. “I came to win today,” he said. “I knew I was ready.” He settled into the pack at 3km but at 13km, in neighbouring Pacific Grove, he broke away as the course turns back towards the finish. “We started going downhill and… I made my move,” Tapia said: “I went for it and it worked.” He pulled away from a group of seven others by running sub-3mins/km pace for the next 5km. His overall pace was 3:01/km. “He’s brought a lot of pride to Monterey County,” said race director Doug Thurston.

Ngige averaged 3:27/km in the women’s race: “The course is [not easy in] the first half, but coming back was better,” said the 10km specialist. “I love the coast, and Monterey is very beautiful.”

The weekend events included 5km and 3km races on the day before altogether attracted 8800 runners from 48 states and 18 countries. Nearly two-thirds of them were female. The oldest runner in the half marathon, Hai Chung, of Monterey, was 89 years old. 3861 were competing in the Monterey Bay Half Marathon for the first time, and 1231 had never competed at the distance before.

The Marathon joined in with the festivities of the important traditional “Calaveras Festival” (Skulls’ Festival), an event dating from pre-hispanic times to honour and venerate loved ones who have passed away. The race medal and T-shirt design incorporated elements of this tradition and aspects that define us as Mexicans.

The day before of race a Mini Marathon took place with 380 children aged from under 5 to 12 years old running distances from 900m to 3.6km.

The Marathon was made possible due to the participation of 1200 volunteers helping as paramedics, with hydration and animation, or as traffic marshals, etc. All the waste material generated by the race is separated and composted or recycled where possible.

The person who crosses the start line is never the same person that crosses the finish line. The race and our city are inspired by the runners that come to take part.

Medio Maratón Valencia Trinidad Alfonso EDP, Spain

Sun 22 October 2017

39.4845 -0.380721

Joyciline Jepkosgei set her sixth world record of the year and her second at the half marathon by beating the time she ran back in March by a single second.

Having improved the 10km world record last month she had the half marathon time in her sights from the start and was paced specifically with this in mind. Even so the early kilometres were faster than intended with 5km being clipped off in 14:52 (2:58/km). She went through 10km in 30:09 (3:02/km) but it began to look as if the damage had been done as her pace slipped to 45:59 (3:04/km) at 15km.

But Jepkosgei managed to rally to reach 20km in 1:01:30 (3:04.5/km). With a supreme effort over the last 1.1km she just ducked under her previous world record. “The course is perfect to run fast,” she said, adding that she will return to contest the World Half Marathon Championships to be held in Valencia on 24 March. In second place Fancy Chemutai improved her best time by 80 seconds.

Abraham Cheroben took the men’s title in a time 22 seconds slower than he has run in the race before. It was his third win in Valencia in the last four years. Pacemakers led through 5km in 14 minutes flat – on pace for a course record but not fast enough for Cheroben – who took the lead at 6km. His surge dropped all except the Ethiopians Leul Gebrselassie and Tsadik Fidaku Haftu, who had neither broken the hour before. They passed 10km in 27:54. Cheroben continued to lead but slowed slightly so that there was no longer any realistic hope of a course record. 20km passed in 56:18 Cherono kicked with 600m to go and instantly pulled out a winning margin.

In fourth the Norwegian Sondre Moen set a new national record and smashed his personal best by over two minutes.

TCS Amsterdam Marathon, Netherlands

Sun 15 October 2017

52.3702 4.89517

In the sun-drenched Olympic Stadium Lawrence Cherono set a new course record of 2:05:09 and Abdi Nageeye (9th) ran 2:08:15 to beat the Dutch national record by five seconds. Tadelech Bekele celebrated victory in the women’s race with a personal best.

Times were especially fast this year: five men went under 2:06. A large group of around 20 runners stayed together up to 30km. Several favourites then started to drop off the pace but five runners bolted through for a tense endgame inside the stadium. Cherono, set the pace throughout. “I began to push on after 30km,” he said “[but] it was only in the last kilometre that I thought about the victory.” Tadelech Bekele complained that stomach problems had slowed her in the last 5km but she had built up a big lead which she safely retained to the end.

The TCS Amsterdam Marathon welcomed 44,643 participants in the Amsterdam Olympic Stadium across the various races (TCS Marathon, Mizuno Half Marathon, TCS 8 km and kids’ run). With a record 127 nationalities present, the atmosphere in and around the Stadium was overwhelming.

H.C. Andersen Marathon, Denmark

Sun 1 October 2017

55.3693 10.4134

In excellent weather conditions of 12–15 degrees and a slight wind, 5,561 runners from 42 nations signed up for the 18th edition of the HCA Marathon in Odense. 1,442 runners had signed up for the marathon, whose two-lap course is known as the fastest in Scandinavia. Runners from abroad dominated the men’s race, and Kenya’s Paul Waweru Chege took the victory over countryman William Morwabe. The women’s race had a surprise winner from Aarhus. Louise Langelund Batting overtook Ethiopia’s Maeregu Shegae before the 40 K mark. 2,832 runners took part in the half marathon, and Omar Hassan Omar with Ethiopian and Somali parents set a new course record in 1:06:25. In the women’s race Kirsten Pettersson from Esbjerg was the first runner to hit Odense Atletikstadion, where the race finished. The new 10 K called “The last 10 K” attracted nearly 1,000 runners, who started in sunny weather from the town square. During the run around Denmark’s third biggest city, the runners were able to enjoy the many fairy tale sculptures based on the characters from the author’s stories.

Sun 24 September 2017

52.2297 21.0122

Blazej Brzezinski ran a well-judged race to win in a personal best of 2:11:26 writes Jon Mulkeen. Ethiopia’s Bekelu Beji also ran down the longtime leader, Kenya’s Recho Kosgei as she collapsed in the final stages.

Eight men passed halfway in 1:05:11 but their number soon reduced to five: Brzezinski and Kenyan quartet Paul Kangogo, Silas Kipngetich, Justus Kiprotich and Japhet Kosgei. After 30km (1:33:10) Kipngetich and Kiprotich forged ahead to lead Brzezinski by 13 seconds at 35km. But the home favourite recovered and reeled in his opponents. Kipngetich then dropped back but Kiprotich remained in contention until Brzezinski began his long drive for home from 40km to take the first marathon victory of his career in 14 outings.

Disaster struck women’s favourite Recho Kosgei in the closing stages as she collapsed within sight of the finish line to open the way for Ethiopia’s Bekelu Beji to take victory. Three women had passed halfway in 1:13:46 but after that it was down to Kosgei and Beji. Kosgei built up a three-minute lead by 40km but with the finish line in distant view, her legs suddenly gave way and she crashed to the ground and could not finish. Poland’s Ewa Jagielska timed her race to perfection, having been more than five minutes down on the leaders at half way, as she came through to finish third.

A much-anticipated world record eluded Eliud Kipchoge thanks to a severe mid-race downpour but he confirmed his position as the world’s number one marathon runner. Major rivals Kenenisa Bekele and Wilson Kipsang dropped out but marathon first-timer Guye Adola nearly pulled off the surprise of the year. He took the lead at 35km to open a gap of about 25m. But Kipchoge rose to the challenge. He caught Adola at 40km and went ahead but the Ethiopian finished only 14 seconds adrift of the Olympic Champion. “That was definitely the hardest marathon I’ve ever run,” said Kipchoge. “I enjoyed it, all of it,” said Adola “…apart from the last two kilometres.” For the seventh time in succession Berlin’s champion set a world best for the year.

Gladys Cherono dramatically returned to form in the women’s race. “I thought I would never run at this level again,” she said, referring to her injury-troubled last year (she had won Berlin in 2015 with a time of 2:19:25). Four women passed halfway in 1:09:40. Amane Beriso dropped back at 30km and just before 35km race favourite Cherono edged ahead of Ruti Aga and Valary Ayabei. Althugh she slowed she finished about 90m ahead of Aga with Ayabei a further 60m back.

A record number of 43,852 runners from 137 countries entered the 44th edition of the race.

Makda Harun raced to a course record while Shota Hattori overtook Werkuneh Seyoum in the last kilometre for a dramatic win writes Len Johnson. Harun and Seyoum both broke away mid-race to establish what looked like a winning lead. The question was: could they hang on? Harun did, and set a new course record; Seyoum did not.

He had taken the lead just past 30km and by 35km was over 100m clear. At 40km he still retained a 60–70m advantage but was being run down. Hattori swept by within sight of the Sydney Opera House finish with Seyoum unable to respond: Hattori was faster over the last 2195m by 32 seconds.

Makda Harun, now resident in Melbourne, scored her second victory in a row. She ran in Melbourne University AC kit and took the Australian title. As last year Harun broke away during the loop around Centennial Park between 15–20km. She was 30m clear at the end of the loop and by 30km held a full minute advantage. None of the chasing pack had made any significant effort to close in the next 5km and although Harun slowed a little she was still 54 seconds clear at the finish while others scrambled for the minor placings.

Over 33,000 runners participated in the marathon and associated events including record numbers in the Marathon.

26-year-old Salah-Eddine Bounasr overcame a quality field for a surprise win writes Vincent Wu. “It was a little bit hot today [but] I came here for the win,” he said. Temperatures ranged up to 24C. A leading pack of 13 runners including defending champion Mekuant Ayenew and 2014 winner Girmay Birhanu held together beyond halfway but at about 24km the group began to thin out with several changes of pace. By 32km only four were left, including Birhanu, Kenya’s Stephen Kwelio Chemlany, Bounasr and his countryman Zakaria Boudad. Birhanu began to pull away after 36km and by 38km he led by five seconds. Bounasr caught him at 40km and went away for the win.

The women’s leader also changed several times in the second half but Beyene held firm and ran away to a convincing win in her second fastest time ever.

Rahma Tusa had led through the first half but slowed gradually before being caught by Beyene and Rebecca Chesir as they approached 28km. Beyene continued apace and a kilometre later had broken away from the other two.

55.6761 12.5683

For only the second time ever the first three men dipped under 59 minutes and winner Abrahan Cheroben ran only 17 seconds outside the world record.

The previous two versions of CPH Half had winning times of 59:15 in 2015 and 59:07 last year but times there was a strong headwind. This time there was none, a temperature of 15C, sunny conditions and crowds of people in the streets supporting all 21,000 runners: the perfect recipe for personal bests.

The pacemaker led through 5km in 13:48 but dropped out before 10km to leave ten men in contention (27:50). At 15km (41:53) the group was down to five. 20-year old Jorum Okombo the biggest surprise – and a name to look out for in future races. With seven men under one hour – the same number as last year – the Copenhagen Half Marathon is the first race in history to accomplish that feat twice.

The women also passed 10km in a large group (31:43) well within record pace. Eunice Chumba carved out a lead in the later stages and crossed the finish line as joint ninth fastest on the all-time list. The time also improved Ingrid Kristiansen’s Scandinavian all-comers-record set in Norway 30 years ago. With two other women crossing finishing in under 67 minutes, the CPH Half 2017 set a new standard for the women’s elite race.

Dam tot Damloop, Netherlands

Sat 16 September 2017–Sun 17 September 2017

52.3702 4.89517

Birhanu Legese managed to fight off compatriots Yelew Alamirew and Jiksa Tedesse in the final kilometre to win the 33rd edition. He also won the ‘gender’ race by overtaking the women – who had a 6:04 head start – after just 12km. Seven athletes remained together, often led by two-time winner Edwin Kiptoo, until the last kilometre. Legese and Alamirew started their final sprint – in which Legese prevailed by seven seconds.

With a kilometre to go in the women’s race six different nationalities were still in the running to win: Uganda, Ethiopia, Japan, Burundi, Romania and Kenya. It only became clear in the final sprint that Mercilyne Chelangat was strongest as she shrugged off the Ethiopian Sofia Assefa and Japanese Risa Takenake in the final metres.

Media Maratón Int’l de Bogotá, Colombia

Sun 30 July 2017

4.59806 -74.0758

Making their late race breaks in similar fashion Feyisa Lilesa and Brigid Kosgei took convincing victories writes Bob Ramsak.

In the women’s contest Kosgei and Veronica Wanjiru, Ruth Chepngetich, Mary Wacera and Meskerem Assefa ran together through 10km in just under 34 minutes. At 2640m altitude it was a good pace and by 15km it became a duel between Wanjiru and Kosgei – who at that stage lagged by nine seconds. She made her move at 20km to cruise through the finish unchallenged.

In the men’s race five went through 10km in 30:20 and again at 15km it was between Lilesa and Peter Cheruiyot Kirui. Lilesa also kicked at 20km and had an equally comfortable victory.

Scotiabank Ottawa Marathon and Ottawa 10K, Canada

Sun 28 May 2017

45.4215 -75.6972

Almost 43,000 runners descended on Tamarack Ottawa Race Weekend to join in the festival of running and celebration of Canada’s 150th birthday writes Alan Brookes. They came from every Canadian province, 41 American states and 63 countries.

The 10km race on a warm Saturday evening was a contest between Kenya’s Nicholas Bor, American Martin Hehir and Ethiopia’s Leul Gebresilase. They broke away after 3km and battled together until Gebresilase put in a hard surge at 8km. Bor was dropped immediately and Hehir eventually slipped back as Gebresilase gave chase to fellow Ethiopian Netsanet Gudeta in the gender challenge. Gudeta battled hard to stay in front and made it by 8 seconds.

Temperatures dropped overnight but climbed to 20C during Marathon morning. Eight men, including 3 pacers, whipped through halfway in 63:39 before conditions took their toll. Four were left after the final pacer dropped out at 30km (1:31:33): Kenyans Eliud Kiptanui and Levy Matebo, Uganda’s Moses Kipsiro, and Ethiopian Seboka Dibaba. At 37km Kiptanui began to turn the screw and dropped Kipsiro, his final challenger. Kipsiro paid for his effort and was passed in the final kilometre by Dibaba and on the line by Matebo. The top four finished within 35 seconds of each other.

In the women’s race Hiwot Gebrekidan charged out at a reckless pace passing 10km in 34:06 and halfway in 71:10. She wilted in the second half: from 40km she took 10:14 to cover that last 2195m and was caught by fellow Ethiopian Guteni Shone. Vancouver’s Dayna Pidhoresky ran strongly on her own almost the whole way to finish 7th overall and first Canadian.

Tata Consultancy Services World 10K Bengaluru, India

Sun 21 May 2017

12.9716 77.5946

World Cross Champion Irene Cheptai made a winning debut in her first international road race. She made her decisive move at 7km which, by the time she reached 8km, had convinced her that she would win. In the men’s race 2013 winner Alex Korio made his push at the same point in the race and it became clear that no one would be able keep pace.

After overnight storms which left roads flooded and strewn with debris conditions were cool but humid. The women set off at leisurely pace so that Worknesh Degefa took it upon herself to lead a strong Kenyan group of Cheptai, Helah Kiprop, Gladys Chesir and Magdalyne Masai. Masai fell back after the group passed 5km in 16:19 and the pace began to pick up. Gladys Chesir was the next to drop back but when Cheptai made her move the race looked like it was well and truly over.

Zane Robertson was the early leader of the men’s race alongside pacemaker Stephen Kissa but the 5km split of 14:10 seemed to act as a spur for Kissa to press on with the race rather than finish his pacing duties. He drew clear of Robertson at about 6km and was pressed only by Korio. While Korio soon took over from Kissa Robertson slipped back several places over the closing kilometres, but remained ahead of world record holder Leonard Komon. The champion for the last two years, Mosinet Geremew, followed them in in 10th place.

A lead pack of four women passed 10km in 35:17 and reached halfway in 1:15:03. Eunice Kioko then dropped back, trailing by 14 seconds at 25km. Meseret Dekebo tailed off after 35km to leave Bekelech Daba and Japan’s Kikuyo Tsuzaki to battle on. With just a few kilometres remaining Daba managed to open a gap on Tsuzaki which proved decisive.

A group of four men passed 10km in 30:28 and halfway in 1:05:10. Behind them, Valerijs Zolnerovics was running his own race in a bid to break his Latvian record of 2:14:33. Richard Bett dropped out of the quartet at 25km. He was followed by Duncan Koech which left Joseph Munywoki and Ethiopia’s Gadisa Birhanu at the front. Munywoki broke from Birhanu in the final few kilometres and went on to win by almost a minute.

Zolnerovics’ controlled approach paid off. He passed a fading Bett with about 5km to go and almost caught Koech. Although he missed the podium by just 10 seconds he was rewarded with a Latvian record of 2:14:24.

Hosea Rutto led an all-Kenyan podium in Mozart’s hometown but the women’s race produced a dramatic upset as Hungary’s Tunde Szabo passed the favourite and longtime race leader Pamela Chemurgor in the last kilometre. A total of 6457 runners from 70 countries registered for one of the weekend’s running events with 998 of them in the full marathon.

The lead three men passed halfway in 1:06:34 but as the pace slowed Rutto made his move. “I started to push at 30km and dropped the others.”

Pamela Chemurgor-Talam took an immediate lead in the women’s race to pass halfway in 1:17:26 almost six minutes ahead of Szabo. Chemurgor suffered badly in the final stages of her first marathon outside Kenya and Szabo gradually closed the gap.

William Yegon broke the course record by 29 seconds after running to halfway side by side with five other athletes. The women’s race was much closer run with the top three finishing within half a minute of each other.

Among the Marathon runners were 350 relay teams of colleagues, friends and families who completed the distance in a series of relay legs of between 4.1km and 10.1km.

Among the half marathon entrants was 85-year old Briton Dierdre Larkin who set a world age best of 2:05:13. A total of 17,404 runners and walkers took part across the eight-race format.
Over 3000 runners from the Sunday races went that extra step by covering an extra 600m after having crossed the finish line on the Pont du Mont Blanc. By taking part in this ‘Extra Mile’ their efforts were rewarded by the Montblanc Group donating CHF 30,000 to Unicef, the official charity partner of the event.

Vienna City Marathon, Austria

Sun 23 April 2017

48.2082 16.3738

In windy conditions Albert Korir edged ahead in the final 150m to win by two seconds. Despite the winds Nancy Kiprop clocked the second fastest time ever run in the women’s race after battling with fellow-Kenyan Rebecca Chesir. She moved ahead with around 400m to go.

A record number of 42,766 runners from 125 nations entered the various events of the 34th Vienna City Marathon, which is Austria’s biggest sporting event. Almost 9000 entered the marathon.

15 men passed halfway in 64:13 with three pacers trying to protect the other athletes from the wind. The wind calmed down over the last 12km as the 12-strong group remaining first thinned to seven and then just three at around 35km: Ishmael Bushendich, Albert Korir and Suleiman Simotwo. Simwoto dropped back at 36km but Bushendich and Korir ran shoulder to shoulder until they could see the finish line. In a thrilling sprint finish Korir edged ahead, improving his personal best from 2:10:08 to 2:08:40.

The women’s leading group contained six runners when they reached halfway in 1:12:36. At 30km (1:42:23) Roza Dereje, Rebecca Chesir and Kiprop were left in the lead. Dereje held on until 39km while Kiprop and Chesir produced a great fight for victory.

B.A.A. Boston Marathon, United States

Mon 17 April 2017

42.3584 -71.0598

Two-time world champion Edna Kiplagat and relative unknown Geoffrey Kirui were crowned champions at the 121st running of the Boston Marathon, the first double win for Kenya in five years writes Parker Morse.

The elite women started 28 minutes before the men and were led out at a brisk pace by Desiree Linden which reduced the pack to eight by halfway and five by 25km. Defending champion Atsede Baysa and former winner Caroline Rotich were dropped. The group of five: Linden, Kiplagat, Rose Chelimo, Jordan Hasay, and Valentine Kipketer held together for another 5km but on the second of three hills in Newton Kiplagat abruptly accelerated and broke away. At the 35km drink station Kiplagat mistakenly picked up another athlete’s bottle but actually went back to replace it before getting her own.

Geoffrey Kirui flew completely under the radar before the race, his best previous marathon being a third-place debut in Rotterdam last year and his PB a 2:06:27 for seventh in Amsterdam. The men’s pack stayed together much longer than the women. Around 25km, as the course descends into Lower Falls to cross the Charles River from Wellesley into Newton, Olympic bronze medallist Galen Rupp moved to the front of the pack. Eventually a duel developed between Rupp and Kirui as they led Oregon-based Japanese Suguru Osako by a dozen seconds at 35km. Then Kirui stomped on the accelerator and Rupp couldn’t answer.

Although there was a tailwind in many places winds were gusty and occasionally head on. Some 27,228 runners in four waves crossed the start line in Hopkinton.

Nagano Marathon, Japan

36.6623 138.192

Taiga Ito came through to win in the last 5km while Kenya’s Rachel Jemutai Mutgaa made an early winning break in the women’s race writes Ken Nakamura.

Junichi Shioya and Tatsunori broke away early in the men’s race and passed through 20km 31 seconds up. Then Ser-Od Bat-Ochir started to chase them. Shioya was passed before 25km and Bat-Ochir also caught Hamasaki to move into the lead. The chase pack, including eventual winner Ito was 15 seconds behind. Bat-Ochir passed 30km 30 seconds clear but by 35km Ito had halved the deficit and at 37km caught him, pulling away to win. Ito became just the third Japanese runner to win the Nagano Marathon in its 19-year history.

Soon after the women started Rachel Jemutai Mutgaa broke away with Miriam Wangari and Famtu Eticha in tow and by 5km they were 50 seconds ahead. Mutgaa then went clear to pass 10km 20 seconds clear. She continued to extend her lead all the way to the finish.

HAJ Hannover Marathon, Germany

Sun 9 April 2017

52.3759 9.73201

Allan Kiprono achieved his biggest career win while Fate Tola, formerly Ethiopian, secured her place on the German team for the 2017 IAAF World Championships in London in August.

Nine runners passed halfway in 1:05:04 but soon after 30km this reduced to five. Then Phillip Sanga, the fastest man in the field with a PB of 2:06:07, took the lead. The group stretched out but Kiprono, Norway’s Sondre Moen, defending champion Lusapho April of South Africa and Nicholas Kamakya all caught Sanga. He pushed the pace again at 35km and April and Kamakya dropped back.

With thousands of spectators lining the sunny streets a thrilling battle for the podium positions began: Moen dropped back and Kiprono overtook Sanga with about 4km to go before forging onwards to win. Moen also passed Sanga just before the 40km but Sanga squeezing by for second as they approached the finish. Moen broke the Norwegian record set 30 years ago by Geir Kvernmo who clocked 2:10:17 at the 1987 London Marathon.

In the women’s race at 15km Tola was already ahead by a minute. She went through halfway in 1:13:06 and was on target for the course record before slowing as her pacemakers dropped out but then picking up again. “It was getting tough without the pacemakers,” she said. “I am not disappointed about the time.”

Running in unseasonably warm conditions Marius Kimutai and Meskerem Assefa took the titles with Assefa improving her personal best by a minute writes Cors Van Den Brink.

Three pacemakers started over-enthusiastically by passing 5km in 14:36 but moderated the pace to record further 5km splits of 14:56 and 15:06 and pass through halfway at 1:02:51. Pacing continued to 30km (1:29:51) after which Laban Korir pushed on to reach 35km in 1:44:54. But Kimutai took over at 40km and quickly carved a decisive gap.

As early as 15km in the women’s race it was down to four: Lucy Karimi, Eunice Chumba, Jane Jelegat Seurey and Assefa. The quartette reached halfway in 1:11:35 and were still together at 30km. Seuray dropped back then but the final move only came in the last 500m when Assefa broke away.

Pamela Rotich waited until the final few metres to break free from her last remaining opponent but Mathew Kisorio ran alone for the last 5km writes John Mulkeen.

Six men passed through 10km in 29:41 and 15km in 44:31 but then the pace dropped as they reached halfway in 63 mins and 30km in 1:29:56. Marathon debutant Bernard Korir was the first to drop back, followed by Evans Kipkoech and Mohamed Reda. Kisorio had just Kipsang for company at 35km, reached in 1:45:08, but he too soon drifted behind. The gap behind Kisorio continued to grow as he went on to win. Kipsang faded to fourth as Peter Some came through to take second.

Six women passed through halfway in 1:13:49 but the lead pack split up soon afterwards as Winnie
Jepkorir and Loice Kiptoo opened up a gap on Rotich with Nancy Koech further behind. But Rotich caught and ran with Jepkorir for the closing few kilometres before kicking to victory and taking more than a minute off her best time. Jepkorir was just four seconds behind with another personal best.

Edwin Kipngetich Koech broke the Italian all-comers’ record by 4 seconds while Sheila Chepkoech broke her personal best by more than 10 minutes writes Diego Sampaolo.

Seven men were paced through halfway in 1:03:17. Pacemakers dropped out at 28km and 30km after which Koech broke away to build a lead which grew to over two minutes by the finish. He smashed his previous personal best of 2:10:52 set in Verona last November. It also improved the previous course record of 2:07:53 set by Duncan Kibet in 2008.

Sheila Chepkoech held off 2010 European champion and 2008 Milan Marathon winner Anna Incerti by six seconds. Five women had passed through halfway in 1:14:30 and 30km in 1:46:31. Chepkoech and Incerti pulled away after 35km and built up a 14-second lead over Vivian Kiplagat at 38km before battling it out in the last 2km as Chepkoech finally broke away in the last kilometre.

Kenyan Luka Rotich Lobuwan and Inés Melchor of Peru cruised to victory in the 11th edition of the race writes Eduardo Biscayart.

Four men passed halfway in 1:05:27 but by 25km (1:17:42) Lobuwan only had Julius Kipyego Keter for company. They reached 35km in 1:50:21, with the duel between 2015 winner Lobuwan and Keter, who won the race in 2011 and 2013, decided in the final 3km.

In the women’s race Melchor started to push the pace after reaching halfway in 1:18:39 and found herself already alone by 25km (1:32:44). The 30-year-old Peruvian, a lawyer by profession and South American record holder with 2:26:48 (2014), kept the pace steady through 35km to repeat her 2015 victory with a second half more than a minute faster than the first.

A total of 28,000 runners took part in the three-race event. Conditions were pleasant with 12–16°C and low humidity.

Maratón Internacional Lala, Mexico

Sun 5 March 2017

25.5428 -103.407

The record field of 5200 runners took off at 06.45 from in front of the main Grupo Lala factory in Gomez Palacio writes Alan Brookes. It was a chilly 12C in the high desert country and remained cool until three hours after the start. Then the sun climbed to high noon and pushed temperatures to the mid-20s as the last runners crossed the festive finish line in front of the Bosque Venustiano Carranza. Runners came from all 31 Mexican states, Colombia, Guatemala and the USA. The race sold out online within 11 days and enjoyed record female participation (31.4% of the field).

While “La Fiesta Lagunera” continued its proud tradition of enthusiastic crowds, first-class organization and strong community support from 29 neighbourhood cheer sites a significant change was the decision to move the post-race area from the magnificent Bosque — a beautiful, irrigated oasis of greenery in the desert and the finest feature of Torreon — to a nearby parking lot. The organisers also ditched the elite field. Subtly, “Maraton Internacional Lala” became “Maraton Lala” and “La Fiesta Lagunera” became “La fiesta de los Laguneros”.

Slower winning times still produced some good local drama. Mexico City’s Ciro Perez Barragan pushed a group of eight through the early stages before taking off on his own. He was caught and passed in the final 2km by “Lagunero” Daniel Ortiz. The women’s race was a thrilling duel between two Laguneras. Marie Isabel Velez and Ana Maria Ortiz ran side by side for 42km before Velez sprinted away over the final 200m to take the tape under the Grito del Triunfo arch.

When the ubiquitous desert dust settles it will be interesting to see what international dairy conglomerate Grupo Lala decides to do for next year’s 30th anniversary edition. This once-proud race staged the fastest marathon in all of Latin America (2:08:17) as recently as 2011.

35.6895 139.692

Kenyans Wilson Kipsang and Sarah Chepchirchir clocked impressive world-leading performances and course records writes Ken Nakamura. Former world record holder Kipsang clipped nearly two minutes from the record while the unheralded Chepchirchir improved the race mark by more than a minute. Both were also the fastest marathons ever run in Japan.

Strong winds notwithstanding the men’s race began fast with a 2:46 first kilometre and 14:13 at 5km. Halfway was reached in 1:01:22 and 30km in 1:27:27 — still on target for a world record. Pacemakers then stepped aside and it was up to Kipsang and Dickson Chumba to keep up the tempo. They slackened slightly, but Kipsang pulled away to pass 40km in 1:57:29. “I pushed really hard at the end, because I could see that a 2:03 marathon was still a possibility,” he said. No one else has run sub-2:04 more than twice; he has done so four times. His time eclipsed Tamirat Tola’s 2:04:11 in Dubai as the fastest ever in Asia and his margin of victory was greater than ever before in Tokyo.

Sarah Chepchirchir reached 30km in 1:46:26 along with Ethiopians Birhane Dibaba and Amane Gobena. She upped the pace over the next 5km (15:46) to build a 40-second advantage on Dibaba. She had planned to up the pace when the pacemakers dropped out. Chepchirchir, 32, forged on to join the elite sub-2:20 club and placing her as 16th fastest ever, bettering her previous best time by almost four and a half minutes and establishing a new race and Japanese all-comers record.

Hiroto Inoue came from behind to pass Yuta Shitara and finish eighth overall, but first Japanese, improving from 2:12:56 last year.

22.3964 114.109

Melaku Belachew smashed the course record by 56 seconds and improved his personal best by two minutes writes John Milkeen. On the women’s side all 10 top places were filled by Ethiopians, headed by Gulume Tollesa.

The men’s race came alive in the final 10km. Halfway was passed by a group of 16 men in 1:06:03. Then Stephen Chemlany joined James Barmasai at the front of the group and together they forged a lead of around 15 seconds by 25km to put themselves back on track for a course record. Chemlany forged on ahead to reach 30km in 1:33:13, 19 seconds ahead. But the 14-man group behind soon began to reel in Chemlany. They splintered apart over the last 10km as Belachew and Julius Keter broke away coming out of the Western Harbour Tunnel.

Belachew opened up a small but decisive gap at about 40km as he held off Keter all the way to win by three seconds with both of them well inside the previous race record.

The women’s race played out similarly. A race record seemed highly unlikely from the outset as the lead pack of 11 women passed halfway in 1:18:09.

The pace picked up in the second half and the group whittled down to just three Ethiopians: Gulume Tollesa, Betelhem Moges and Aberu Mekuria. The trio battled to the end with Tollesa getting the victory. In fourth Letebrhan Haylay’s time was faster than her winning time last year.

World champion Peres Jepchirchir broke the women’s world record but was pushed all the way by former world and course record holder Mary Keitany writes Tim Hutchings. She shaved three seconds off the time her compatriot Florence Kiplagat set in Barcelona two years ago. Fully recovered from a bout of pneumonia at the end of 2016 the 23-year old, 4th in RAK last year, also broke the world record for 20km (mixed race) with 61:40 — 14 seconds faster than the mark set by Kiplagat in Barcelona.

In the men’s race World Half Marathon runner-up Bedan Karoki surged to victory over the last 3km after having made much of the running in the second half of the race once the pacemakers had stepped aside. Behind him rising star Yigrem Demelash broke his personal best by 29 seconds.

34.3401 134.043

Callum Hawkins won convincingly in a new personal best to become second only to Mo Farah on the UK all-time list writes Ken Nakamura. Olympic Marathon silver medallist Eunice Kirwa pushed the pace in the women’s race from the start (15:35 at 5km) to build a 30-second lead. She reached 10km in 31:37, 44 seconds clear of Amy Cragg. Cragg then began to chip away at the lead, cutting the margin to 32 seconds at 15 kilometres and to 26 at 20km. But Kirwa was never threatened finishing just one second slower than her winning time last year. Cragg lopped 1:23 from her previous lifetime best.

Hawkins was even more dominant in the men’s race but had begun much more cautiously. Abraham Kipyatich led a large group through 5km in 14:20 and 10km in 28:28. The pack included Hawkins, Ethiopian Atsedu Tsegaye, Joel Mwaura and the Japanese trio of Daichi Kamino, Suguru Osako, and Yuta Shitara who were mounting an assault on the 1:00:25 national record. At 13km the pack began to break up, with Hawkins and Kipyatich taking to the front. Hawkins made his move soon after the pair reached 15km in 42:37. By 20km he was more than 50 seconds ahead of Kipyatich who in turn had a gap of a few seconds on the chase pack that included Tsegaye, Kamino and Mwaura. The 24-year-old Briton stopped the clock at 60 minutes flat. Tsegaye made up ground in the waning stages to finish second while Kipyatch fell back to fourth.

Sun 29 January 2017

Risa Shigetomo overhauled early leader Misato Horie in the 35th kilometre and went on to record her second fastest ever time writes Ken Nakamura. Her fastest was in the same race five years ago which clinched her a place in the 2012 London Olympic team. This time her win could mean a return to the British capital as a member of the 2017 world championships squad.

“When the pace suddenly increased (at around 13km) I was surprised to see such a big gap open up in front of me [but] around 17—18km I started to regain my running rhythm,” she said.

When Flomena Cheyech Daniel upped the pace at 14km only Misaki Kato, Misaot Horie and Kaori Yoshida were able to maintain contact. When Cheyech pulled out at halfway in 1:11:46, the trio formed the lead pack, with Yoshida pushing the pace. Kato drifted back after 25km and Horie took over the lead.

Shigetomo moved into second by 29km and began cutting into Horie’s lead. She reduced the gap from 21 seconds at 31km to 6 seconds at 35km and 500m later moved to the front for good. Although she slowed near the finish she won comfortably in her tenth marathon start, her fifth in Osaka.

Tanzania’s Alphonce Simbu, fifth at the Rio 2016 Olympic Games, hit the front with 1km to go and sprinted away for victory after a duel over the last 7km with Kenyan Joshua Kipkorir. A group of 13 passed through halfway in 1:04:49 and the pace stayed steady as far as 30km with seven men still together at that point. Kipkorir then changed pace and split the pack. By 35km, as they started on an 800m-long drag up a tough hill, Simbu was his only rival. Simbu tucked in to Kipkorir’s frustration. With 2km to go the strain of leading began to tell on Kipkorir as Simbu awaited his moment to strike. He raced away to equal the second-fastest winning time in the 14 years the race has been held. Falling only 13 seconds short of his personal best time was an impressive performance as the course is challenging, with two big hills, and conditions were warm and humid. All the more impressive that Kipkorir sliced more than three minutes off his best time.

By contrast to the thrilling two-man battle in the men’s race Bournes Kitur, after passing halfway in 1:14:03 with three other women, raced away to a one-minute lead at 30km. The 21-year-old Kenyan kept on extending her advantage over the remainder of the race. “I was confident I could win because I knew the course after finishing second here last year,” said the quietly-spoken Kitur. 2014 and 2015 champion Dinknesh Mekash started to struggle just before halfway and finished a disappointing fifth.

Mumbai Marathon is one of the largest sporting events in Asia and India’s biggest platform for charity. There were four other associated races with an estimated 42,000 runners taking to the streets of Mumbai.

Tiberias Winner Marathon, Israel

Fri 6 January 2017

32.7959 35.531

1330 runners completed the full marathon and 1170 the 10km in sunny but cool conditions. There were two exceptional results: a little-known Ethiopian Gebremaryan Gebrekid Hiwot improved her personal best by nine minutes to break the 25-year old course record and set a world-leading time. The second impressive achievement was by the Israeli Girma Amara who set a national record for a debut marathon with 2:17:20. This gave him a qualifying time for the World Championships to be held in London this summer.

Xiamen International Marathon, China

Mon 2 January 2017

24.4798 118.089

Race favourites Lemi Berhanu and Meseret Mengistu led podium sweeps for Ethiopia writes Vincent Wu.

After a group of 15 runners passed through 10km in 30:15 Berhanu made an early break. Running alone at the front, with countrymen Shura Kitata and Mosinet Geremew chasing, Berhanu passed 25km in 1:15:16 with an advantage of 36 seconds but then began to slow. His lead was not threatened and behind him half marathon specialist Geremew outraced Kitata over the last 10km. Xiamen was his marathon debut.

Meseret Mengistu followed her win in Beijing last September with another in Xiamen finishing with a time two seconds slower and six minutes shy of Mare Dibaba’s 2:19:52 course record set in 2015.

Seven runners passed through 10km in 34:30; by halfway there were four of them left. Mengistu, defending champion Workenesh Edesa, 2016 Beijing Marathon runner-up Melkam Gizaw and 2016 Wuhan Marathon winner Meseret Legese. Legese has run the last four Xiamen Marathons but is yet to claim a victory. Edesa and Mengistu pulled away after about 26km. Edesa tried to shake off Mengistu with surges but her efforts came to nothing as the patient Mengistu took her chance at 35km and never looked back.
