7 MAY 2006: VIENNA CITY MARATHON, AUSTRIA
Photos: Victah Sailer
Good running conditions (fine, no wind, 12°C) led to some fast times in this 23rd
edition of the race. Lahoucine Mrikik set a new men's course record and Japan's Tomo Morimoto
ran the second fastest women's time ever recorded in Vienna (behind Maura Viceconte's 2:23:47
mark from 2000).
This year's motto "Run Vienna, enjoy Mozart" drew in 23,961 participants in all
the various events. Classical music was played along the marathon course through the city.
The men's race was fast from the beginning: 5km passed in 15:05 and 10km in 30:16. In the
middle of the race it slowed slightly, and eight runners passed the half way mark in 64:22.
Samson Kandie's 2004 course record (2:08:35) then seemed to be slipping away when 30km was
reached in 1:31:48. Just before then
Mrikik and Peter Chebet went ahead and at around 38km the Moroccan again stepped up the pace.
He clocked 2:55 minutes for the next kilometre and took a decisive lead. "Today
everything was perfect: my form and the weather conditions", said the 34-year old winner
- who had entered the race with a personal best of 2:13:31.
Tomo Morimoto ran the 12th fastest time of the year with in her first race outside of
Japan. Chieko Yamasaki and Mary Ptikany had passed 10km together with Morimoto in 34:24 but
before reaching 20km Morimoto, who had run a 2:27:16 marathon debut this year in Osaka, broke
away from the others. At half way (1:12:31) she was already 25 seconds clear of Yamasaki.
Fourth placed Susanne Pumper broke the Austrian record.

7 MAY 2006: RUNBERLIN 25km, GERMANY
The Kenyan win streak remained unbroken in the 26th edition of Run Berlin through the
efforts of 21-year old Patrick Musyoki, who finished in the second fastest time of the year.
He almost missed out on victory, because he took the wrong turn just inside the Olympic
Stadium. But he corrected himself immediately and ran the last 400m very strongly. In the
women's race Peninah Arusei improved her personal best by more than three minutes. A total of
10,495 participated, with 6,186 of them in the 25km race, 2,966 in the 10km Nike Challenge fun
run. There were also 724 inline skaters and 30 teams in the 5x5km relay. In the kids race 366
ran and 103 children participated in the junior skating race.
Right from the start a leading group of nine men ran their own race. "After 10km the
pacemakers were too slow. So I pushed the pace a bit. At 23km I knew I had a chance to win, so
I increased the pace," said Musyoki. He ran the last kilometre in 2:43. The pre-race
favourite Elijah Sang let the lead pair get away 3km from the end. It is the fifth time in a
row that Kenyans have swept the top three men's places.
Peninah Arusei's win made it six in a row for Kenyan women. The first 10km were fast
(34:22), and slightly downhill. Arusei led the field from the beginning and after 9km she ran
the rest of the race alone.

13 MAY 2006: GOTEBORG HALF MARATHON, SWEDEN
Seven of the top eight finishers (all except Pavel Loskutov) were misled by officials at
9.4km and ran about 100m short of the full distance. Despite a complaint by Loskutov, the
results were allowed to stand, but the times recorded should not be included in any official
statistics for the half marathon.
It was fast from the very beginning. A group of Kenyans were closely trailed by three
Moroccans. Loskutov followed at a distance of about 50m after the first 5km. After the
incident at 9.4km Salil and Kipchirchir increased the pace broke away from the Mouazziz
brothers.
Over the second large bridge (15km) the experienced Abdelkadir El Mouazziz took over the
lead and went steadily ahead for a 36-second winning margin. His younger brother Abdelhadid
passed the Kenyan pair as they faded badly after 15km.
The women's race was completely controlled by Helena Javornik, the experienced Slovenian
runner. She broke away from last year's winner, Susan Kirui, at the halfway mark and won by
more than a minute. Behind her Anna Rahm finished strongly to pass Kirui on her way
to a new personal best. The Swedish marathon record holder, Lena Gavelin, made an encouraging
comeback in this race.
Of 35,780 entered, 26,600 finished the race.

14 MAY 2006: PRAGUE INTERNATIONAL MARATHON,
CZECH REPUBLIC
Marathon Weekend began on the Saturday with the 8km City Run attracting 3,800 runners and
the 4km Family Run 5,300 participants. Two in-line events (15km and 5km) were also run on
Saturday, with 1,022 skaters taking part.
The runners and skaters took off to the beat of the monstrous Marathon Music Festival,
featuring several very enthusiastic Brazilian style drum bands, dancers, jugglers and acrobats
and an epic 11-hour main stage performance, featuring top Czech bands.
Next day the Marathon began in near-perfect conditions with cool temperatures, as 4082
runners from more than 70 nations were set on their way by Czech President Vaclav Klaus.
Hassan Mbarak Shami went through halfway in a group of six (1:04:28), but by 33km he was
almost 500m ahead of David Kiyeng and Joseph Ngeny. Kiyeng stuck to the pursuit and by the
finish line he had significantly reduced Shami's lead, but it was too late. Stephen Matebo
kept away from the early pace and came through, while John Rotich was in an isolated fourth
place at 33km but faded in the later stages.
The first three in the women's race passed through halfway in 1:13:44, and only began to
break up at around 32km as Alina Ivanova pushed ahead to a clear win.

14 MAY 2006: iWELT WUERZBURG MARATHON, GERMANY
The race incorporated the Bavarian Championships.
It was the closest race ever. Two Kenyans chased the pace car to the finish line, both of
them sprinting but neither faster than the other. They crossed the line together, only 20
seconds outside the course record.
In the women's race the record holder Olga Nevkapsa at first ran with the pacemaker Kim
Bauermeiser, aiming for 2:33. After halfway she found the heat troubling and slowed, to
eventually fall a minute short of her own record. The best performance of the day came from
Alem Ashebir. The young Ethiopian, with a personal best of 1:12:50, easily beat the old record
and was ten minutes ahead of her competition.
It was a great sight to see as 5,350 participants came through the start. A fantastic
atmosphere was generated by around 30,000 spectators.

Kenyan athletes dominated the men's marathon filling nine out of the top ten places and
with Benjamin Bitok beating last year's inaugural course record by 6:20. On this hilly course,
at 1650m altitude and at 20-23°C, it was an impressive performance.
In the Half Marathon Disi Dieudonne made up for missing last year's race by outsprinting
Tanzania's John Rogart in the finishing straight. A lead group of 11 runners stayed together
on the two-lap course until the last 5km, when Dieudonne and Rogart got away. Entering the
national stadium Amohoro, thousands of spectators were stood up to fanatically cheer their
local hero on. He sprinted strongly in the last 250m to secure victory and beat the old course
record by 1:41.

Biwott went ahead. Slower-starting Eduard Tukhbatullin came through to take the runner-up spot
as Nyangwara tired over the final 10km.
Women's winner Ida Kovacs also held back in the early stages as Tatyana Perelpekina led.
Kovacs took over from half way and built up a four-minute winning margin. In the half marathon

28 MAY 2006: ING OTTAWA MARATHON, CANADA
Photo: Action Sport International
A 22-year old record was shattered in the women's marathon by Canadian Lioudmila
Kortchaguina who finished with a new course record and personal best, a long way ahead of her
opposition. In the men's category, Morrocan Abderrahime Bouramdane was declared the winner,
ahead of his fellow countryman Zaid Laaroussi.
The yawning gap between second and third places - almost 12 minutes - hints that something
untoward took place. Between 8km and 9km 14 runners inadvertently cut the course, and the
first six finishers were disqualified, plus several other stragglers who had also gone off
course.
The main pacemaker, Nicodemus Malakwen took the race out fast: 1km in 2:50; 3km in 8:58.
Only the other two pacemakers, and the Moroccan pair of Abderrahime Bouramdane and Zaid
Laaroussi went with Malakwen. By 5km [15:04], this group had a big lead. The flat, scenic
course then entered the New Edinburgh neighbourhood of tree-lined streets, and lots of turns.
The lead vehicles and the first group followed the correct course, but the trailing pack, out
of sight, somehow got turned the wrong way and emerged from a side street around 9km, some
200m ahead of the lead vehicles and runners, having cut off between 400m and 500m.
The lead vehicles went on ahead of the "short-course" group, leaving the
"full course group" of Moroccans and pacemakers behind the new lead pack.
By 22km, the Moroccans caught the pack, and were then content to run with their new group of
12 extra pacemakers. When assigned pacemakers pulled out at 30km, Kasime Roba of Ethiopia and
the Kenyans started to race. Bouramdane initially made a move to go with them, but compatriot
Laaroussi told him to hold back, saying: "no problem, they will all be disqualified."
So it proved, as the Moroccans cruised in for first and second in 2:12:18 and 2:12:59. Third
place was awarded to Brad Poore who finished behind a dozen of the short-course runners.
There was also a new record in participation as 29,364 runners took part in the nine races on
the schedule, with 4216 in the marathon and 8274 in the half marathon. There were also 10km
and 5km events in each of which around 7000 participated.
