Airtel Delhi Half Marathon, India

Sun 20 November 2016

28.6353 77.225

Kenya’s Eliud Kipchoge made a triumphant return to racing after his victory in the Rio 2016 Olympic Games marathon by winning in 59:44, while Worknesh Degefa ended Peres Jepchichir’s winning streak writes Phil Minshul.

Ethiopia’s Yigrem Demelash was Kipchoge’s most persistent challenger and matched him stride for stride until 20km at which point Kipchoge edged ahead to a 25m winning margin and a US$27,000 first prize. It had taken only 5km for a compact lead group to emerge — Kipchoge, Demelash and Augustin Choge were paced by John Langat and Ronald Kirui through the first 10km in 28:33 (1:00:14 pace). The lead trio lost their pacemakers after 12km but then increased the tempo enough for Choge’s challenge to falter at 17km. In the final kilometre Kipchoge managed to force a gap but was clearly worried by a possible sprint finish from Demelash and repeatedly glanced back before crossing the line just outside the Jawaharlal Nehru Stadium. Six years earlier Kipchoge had taken the Commonwealth Games 5000m silver medal in the same stadium. Behind him Demelash and Choge both set personal best times.

Ethiopia’s Worknesh Degefa was the fastest woman in the field but the race favourite was World Half Marathon Champion Peres Jepchirchir who was unbeaten over the distance since taking the title last March. Delhi proved to be one outing too many for the Kenyan who had said before the race that she had been suffering from blisters on her feet and a cold in the proceeding weeks. Six runners, led by Degefa with her compatriot Ababel Yeshaneh and Jepchirchir running directly behind her, were still in contention up to 18km. Then Degefa pushed hard and spilt up the pack. A tiring Jepchirchir faded to fifth.

Great Ethiopian Run 10km, Ethiopia

Sun 20 November 2016

8.9806 38.7578

Two relatively new and unknown young athletes were the surprise winners of the 16th edition: Abe Gashahun won in a sprint finish ahead of Kenyan athlete Jorum Lumbasi and women’s winner Foiteyn Tesfaye made a winning debut which surprised better-known names in the race.

Lumbasi became the first Kenyan male to place in the top three since Nathan Naibei finished second in 2005. Four runners entered the home straight locked together and Gashahun only clinched victory in the final few metres.

Gashahun said: “I have competed abroad only twice until now, both times in France. I hope that my win today will give me more opportunities.”

Tesfaye’s winning time was one of the fastest in the race’s 16-year history “This is my biggest race victory by a long way and my first race over 10km” she said.

Following the two elite races around 40,000 participants were set off in two wave starts giving hope for increasing the capacity of the race in future years.

BLOM BANK Beirut Marathon, Lebanon

Sun 13 November 2016

33.8886 35.4955

Oppressive heat and humidity conspired to deny runners any chance of fast times writes Paul Gains. When IAAF President Sebastian Coe fired the starting gun at 07.00 it was already 21C and reached 25C at the finish.

Kenya’s Edwin Kibet Kiptoo proved strongest on the day relegating defending champion Jackson Limo into third place. In the women’s race Tigist Girma was perhaps the only runner to set a personal best with a convincing win against her compatriot Seada Kedir who had won the Beirut race in both 2011 and 2012.

“My target was 2:09 but today you cannot run for time,” said Kiptoo. “From 31–32km I looked back and there were no people behind. I was able to increase my lead to the finish.”

The pacemakers exercised a great degree of caution due to conditions and reached halfway almost four minutes slower than planned. There were nine athletes in contention at that point but Kiptoo ran the second half much faster to undo his rivals.

The women’s race became a solo effort shortly after halfway as 23-year-old Girma dropped the entire field including her designated pacemaker who had been expected to accompany her to the finish.“He ran well until his legs hurt and he dropped back,” said Girma.

More than 43,000 runners of all ages took to the streets for a variety of events from a 1km children’s run to the full marathon. IAAF President Sebastian Coe took part in the 7km fun run along with Lebanese Prime Minister Saad Hariri.

French Riviera Marathon Nice-Cannes, France

Sun 13 November 2016

43.7102 7.26195

Elisha Kipchirchir produced a surprise win in the ninth edition — to take his first victory at his fifth attempt over the marathon, lowering his PB by three minutes in the process writes Quentin Guillon. Konjit Tilahun took the women’s title by a wide margin.

Led by the pacemakers, about 10 runners hit 10km in 30:42, reducing to seven by halfway (1:05:02).

After the terrorist attack in July, the start had moved from the ‘Promenades des Anglais’ to Allianz Riviera Stadium, making the first part of the course hillier than previous editions with an additional two or three steep climbs.

The last pacemaker, Paul Melly, dropped out at 30km leaving five runners in contention including Kenyans Henry Sugut, Nixon Machichin, Ethiopia’s Azmeraw Mengistu and Kipchirchir. Sugut began to fade at 32km but at 35km, with the other four still together as the pace dropped, Kimutai and Kipchirchir ramped up the pace so that they had dropped the other two by 38km. Kipchirchir began his decisive move with 2km to go and created a gap which he held to the finish.

Konjit Tilahun fulfilled her role of favourite to snatch her first win over the full marathon distance. She passed halfway in 1:18:40 and continued at that tempo to win in a time almost 10 minutes outside her lifetime best of 2:28:11 from two years ago.

Rock ’n’ Roll Las Vegas Marathon & 1/2 Marathon, United States

Sun 13 November 2016

36.1699 -115.14

On a night when more than 45,000 runners, walkers and wheelchairs athletes toured a packed Las Vegas Strip beneath the glare of casino lights, the GEICO Rock ‘n’ Roll Las Vegas Marathon & ½ Marathon celebrated a fitting winner: Elvis Presley.

Running his first race in an Elvis costume Mike Wardian not only won the marathon but set a Guinness World Record for fastest marathon in an Elvis costume. With his black pompadour bouncing off his head, Wardian broke the record by nearly five minutes. Wardian attributed his achievement to “The energy of the crowd. And Elvis definitely helped. It was much less me and more him tonight.”

The Strip is closed to traffic two nights of the year – New Year’s Eve and for the GEICO Rock ‘n’ Roll Las Vegas Marathon & ½ Marathon. Thousands lined Las Vegas Boulevard shouting: “The King is here”; “Viva Las Vegas”; and “Thank you, thank you very much”. At 42, Wardian is a three-time Olympic Trials marathon qualifier from Virginia.

The GEICO Rock ‘n’ Roll Las Vegas Marathon & ½ Marathon attracted runners from all 50 states and 83 countries.

The race began in the late afternoon on the south end of Las Vegas Boulevard across the street from Mandalay Bay. Among the costumed characters were Spiderman, Forrest Gump, T-Rexes, Wonder Woman, Superman and too many Elvis impersonators to count.

Shanghai International Marathon, China

31.2304 121.474

South Africa’s Stephen Mokoka won for the third time in four years writes Vincent Wu. He enjoyed a solitary lead in the last 7km to win by nearly a minute although 2:38 shy of his personal best of 2:07:40 when he finished second here last year. Running under cloudy conditions with the temperature ranging from 13C to 18C, a leading group of three men, including Mokoka, Kenya’s Asbel Kipsang and Ethiopia’s Abdi Fufa, paced the race until 30km. Fufa then fell back while Kipsang managed to keep up with Mokoka for another 5km before the South African pulled away.

In the women’s race Roza Dereje held off a strong challenge from Kenya’s Margaret Agai in the last hundred metres to take her second win in the month, having won the HC Andersen Marathon in Denmark 29 days previously.

She trimmed nearly five minutes from her PB in Shanghai. Nine runners passed halfway together but by 35km only Agai and Wude Ayalew were still with Dereje. All three reached 40km together but Dereje then pulled away.

A pack of nine led the race through halfway but was whittled down to three by 35km, with just Agai and Wude Ayalew matching Dereje’s pace. When the trio reached 40km Dereje pulled away. But she slowed and Agai closed the gap to draw level a few hundred metres from the finish. Dereje looked stunned but kept her cool and sped up again to regain the lead.

SSE Airtricity Dublin Marathon, Ireland

Sun 30 October 2016

53.3353 -6.25216

In 1980 Dublin became the first mass marathon in Europe (a year before London) and this year it became Europe’s fourth biggest marathon — and the fastest-growing.

Weather conditions were perfect for the record field of 19,500: not too hot and no wind or rain.

In the men’s race Dereje Debele Tulu took an early lead and finishing strongly well ahead of his countrymen. The first home-based runner was Sergiu Ciobanu, finishing seventh overall and winning his fourth national title by defeating defending national champion Sean Hehir by over a minute.

The women’s race was much closer and came down to a sprint for the line between Helalia Johannes of Namibia and 2011 winner Ehite Bizuayehu. Johannes edged it by two seconds. The first Irish female finisher and a surprise winner of the national title was Laura Graham who finished ninth overall in a personal best more than six minutes faster than her time in London six months earlier.

Close to 17,000 finished with the slowest of them taking over eight hours. The 2017 edition will be on Sunday 29 October.

Samsung Amman International Marathon, Jordan

Fri 28 October 2016

31.9834 35.9278

Heavy overnight rain gave way to ideal conditions for the eighth edition of the four-lap race with a famously tough uphill finish writes Norrie Williamson.

Benjamin Kiprop and countryman Victor Kimeli ran together to 35km after which Kiprop started to open up a lead which grew to 500m. He finished a few seconds shy of his 2010 winning time and course record. Kimeli maintained second and commented “It was hard going on the hill on the third lap and I could not find the energy to go with Benjamin when he pushed on the down in the city centre.” Yeshumie Ajigu was a clear winner of the women’s race.

Around 7000 runners from 25 countries took part in the event which includes Half Marathon and 10km races. They have grown to become a major festival of running in Jordan’s capital city, with live national television and local and international media. Prince Firas Bin Raad, the patron of the race completed the 10km. Increased numbers of local runners are now participating in the half and full marathon distances.

45.4808 12.2451

Priscah Cherono and Julius Rotich dominated their respective fields with Rotich defending his title and Cherono improving her personal best to win by a margin of seven minutes writes Diego Sampoalo.

Cherono began to pull away from Ester Macharia after 10km and built a 16-second lead by 15km extending it to 1:32 at halfway. She maintained her pace across the famous Ponte della Libertà Bridge, passing 35km more than five minutes ahead, and finished unpressed to knock almost 1:30 off her personal best time.

The men set off fast. A group of seven passed 10km in 30:26 but whittled down to four at halfway (1:04:19). Rotich and Titus Masai broke away from Francis Ngare to build a 22-second gap in San Giuliano’s Park around 30km but Adugna Bekele closed the gap to catch Ngare and move into third. Rotich forced the pace across the Ponte della Libertà, reaching 35km more than two minutes up on Bekele and Masai. He began to tire at 40km as he faced the 14 bridges that cover the course’s final 2km but still managed to pull off a comfortable win.

While Daniel Wanjiru improved his best time by almost three minutes to set a new course record Meselech Melkamu had an untroubled win in the women’s race. Sammy Kitwara suddenly picked up the pace at halfway and 10 or so other runners followed him including Wilson Chebet (who won in 2011, 2012 and 2013) and Bernard Kipyego (who won in 2014 and 2015). The race began in earnest at 32km when Kirui, Kitwara and Wasihun closed a 6-second gap to catch up with the lead pack. Wanjiru joined them 2km later. In the Vondelpark, with just 2km to go, he surged ahead: “From 39km I knew I was going to win,” he said.

Sun 16 October 2016

43.6501 -79.3638

Philemon Rono survived a pre-race accident to run away from a strong field. The diminutive Kenyan broke free with 5km to go while Shure Demise became the first woman to successfully defend her Toronto title writes Paul Gains.

Rono had suffered an accident with a falling barricade during his warmup and had to consult his management team before he decided to start but within 3km seemed fully recovered. Pacemakers took the group through halfway in 1:03:22 on target to beat Derissa Chimsa’s course record of 2:07:05. But the temperature was 18C at the start and in the second half the humidity proved energy-sapping.

Seboko Dibaba took the lead at about 30km which helped to drop defending champion Isshimael Chemtan but he later explained that: “After 36km my injuries in my groin and my left calf started up. It has been a problem before. I have had two surgeries in 2013 and 2014.”

For much of the women’s race Demise led a pack made up of her compatriots Tadelech Bekele, Ashete Bekere and Fatuma Sado. It wasn’t until the final 5km that she managed to scent victory.

Wizz Air Kyiv City Marathon, Ukraine

Neither rain, cold hail or wind could dissuade runners from turning up in their thousands, coming from 50 countries, to take part in one of five events of which the marathon topped the bill.

The fiercest battle of the day unfolded on the marathon course between Artem Piddubnyi and a Paralympic athlete Oleh Leshchyshyn. At 34km Artem caught up with Leshchyshyn and just a few kilometres from the finish broke away. However, Leshchyshyn regained the lead in the home stretch to take the win, both runners finishing ahead of last year’s winner Yevhen Hlyva.

The Mayor of Kiev Vitaly Klitschko started the 2km charity race and said “I am happy that Kyiv is truly a sports city. It is good that so large a number of people entered the marathon and the charity race.”

BMW Berlin Marathon, Germany

Sun 25 September 2016

52.5199 13.3732

Kenenisa Bekele ran the second fastest time ever in a thrilling duel with former world record holder Wilson Kipsang. He smashed Haile Gebrselassie’s Ethiopian record of 2:03:59 set in Berlin back in 2008, then a world record. After a quick first 5km in 14:18 the pace settled at around world record schedule (halfway was passed in 1:01:10). After 30km Kipsang edged ahead but Bekele gradually clawed his way back into contention. But at 34km Kipsang went ahead again, holding an advantage of 30-40m through to about 38km before Bekele closed down on him again. They ran together up to 41km after which Bekele started his winning surge.

Ethiopia’s Aberu Kebede took the women’s race in the second fastest time in the world this year. It was her win in Berlin after victories in 2010 and 2012. She had a relatively easy time of it beating compatriot Birhane Dibaba by over three minutes. Ruti Aga aged 22, made it an Ethiopian sweep of the podium.

41,283 runners from 122 countries entered the 43rd edition of the race.

Dam tot Damloop, Netherlands

Sun 18 September 2016

52.3702 4.89517

Edwin Kiptoo launched his attack after 11km so fiercely that he shook all competition off with only Joshua Chetegei able to keep vaguely in touch with him. Alice Aprot broke away right from the start. It was a lonely race for the 4th-placer from the Olympic 10,000m in Rio and her longest distance so far. Kiptoo won the man-woman race where women are given a head start.

A total of 45,000 runners took part making the event the largest 10 English Mile race in the world. In the morning 4000 children took part in the Mini Dam tot Damloop children’s events. The evening before the Damloop 5 miles race by night attracted 13,000 participants on a magically lit course. Next year’s events will be on 16–17 September 2017.

Beijing Marathon, China

Sat 17 September 2016

39.8841 116.426

Meseret Mengistu lived up to expectations as race favourite to register Ethiopia’s third straight victory in the women’s race writes Vincent Wu. It was a bit of a comeback for the 26-year old 17 months after her breakthrough 2:23:26 in Paris last year. It was also the best women’s time in Beijing for 11 years. She led with compatriots Melkam Gizaw and Hamila Hussen for the first 13km. Hussen slowed from 14km leaving the other two to run together for another 26km before Mengistu pulled away. North Korean Jo Un-Ok, who improved by more than five minutes at the 2016 Pyongyang Marathon this year, came a distant third.

The men’s race was also decided after 40km but the winning time was slow. Ayenew stunned a field that included eight sub-2:10 runners to register the slowest winning time since countryman Siraj Gena’s 2:15:45 in 2010, nearly four minutes slower than Tadese Tola’s 2013 course record of 2:07:16.

The lead pack began to shrink after 16km with eight men left at 20km and only four — all Ethiopians — at 25km. Andualem Belay dropped back at 33km and Mesfin Teshome at 38km leaving Ayenew and 2014 Hong Kong Marathon winner Feyera Gemeda to run shoulder-to-shoulder for 2km more before Ayenew sped away to win.

30,000 runners took part. This year’s race started in the landmark Tian’anmen Square and finished outside the “Bird’s Nest” stadium, host to the 2008 Olympic Games and 2015 IAAF World Championships.

Siberian International Marathon, Russia

Sun 7 August 2016

54.9833 73.3667

Over 9000 runners took part in all events with 500 men and 74 women going the full distance in the Marathon. Among them were over 100 foreign runners from 14 countries. The race celebrated the 300th anniversary of the founding of the city of Omsk. The mayor gave the starting shot with a cannon salvo.

Andrei Bryzgalov repeated his win of 2008. In the last three years the men’s marathon has been won by African runners. Marina Kovaleva previously won the race in 2010. This year she strode away from her rivals for a two-minute winning margin.

Media Maratón Int’l de Bogotá, Colombia

Sun 31 July 2016

4.59806 -74.0758

Tadese Tola broke away from three Kenyan rivals – Kiprop Limo, Kimutai Kiplimo and Mariu Kipserem – after 9km. Kipserem got back to him at 13km and the pair ran relatively easily for the next 4km. Then Tola surged again and forged ahead to win by 80m. He ended a five-year winning streak by Kenyan men at the race and became just the second Ethiopian winner in the 17-year history of the event. His winning time was the slowest in the history of the race but the Colombian capital lies at 2600m, the course is undulating and there were some stiff breezes. The Kenyans were not willing to push the pace and challenge Tola.

By contrast Purity Rionoripo posted the second fastest ever women’s time and won by almost two minutes. She broke away after 7km and seemed immune to the adverse conditions. Only Susan Chepkemei has ever run faster — when she set the outstanding course record of 1:10:29 back in 2003. Defending champion Amane Gobena, from whom much was expected after her personal best of 2:21:51 in the Tokyo Marathon, was second for much of the race but struggled in the final 2km and was passed by Veronicah Nyaraui.

“I’m very happy because Tadese Tola did not reach me,” said Rionoripo “I did not let him reach me" — the elite women started 10 minutes before the men.

More than 40,000 runners participated in the half marathon and the associated 10km race.

Robert Kwambai hid himself patiently in the leading pack for the first 35km writes Vincent Wu. He passed 20km in 1:03:32 and 30km in 1:30:18 along with five others. After 35km Kwambai started to speed up and dropped all except Workneh Tesfa, but he also fell back after 37km as Kwambai extended his lead in the final 5km. His winning time was enough to win by almost 200m but was five minutes slower than his personal best.

The 24-year-old Tsehay Desalegn upset a deep field that contained 10 sub-2:30 runners (her own best is 2:31:25) to win the women’s race. After 30km the race was down to a duel between Desalegn and her compatriot Azalech Masresha but was decided only in the last 200m. Masresha, with a best of 2:25:34 was up front for most of the race but could not withstand Desalegn’s powerful late charge. Her winning time was 54 seconds shy of the course record of 2:31:22, set by Kenya’s Rael Kiyara last year.

The sixth edition attracted a total of 6000 runners with another 34,000 in the associated half marathon and 5km fun run events.

Scotiabank Ottawa Marathon and Ottawa 10K, Canada

Sat 28 May 2016–Sun 29 May 2016

45.4215 -75.6972

The 42nd edition attracted 47,000 runners from 60 countries to the five events and a children’s run held over race weekend.

Saturday afternoon’s 2km and 5km races were unseasonably hot at 31C and the highly competitive 10km event was delayed by 30 mins (to 19.00) to reduce the heat exposure. Heavy rain in the first few kilometres helped damp down the temperature and push up the tempo as Moroccan Mohammed Zianni put in a final surge to pass Ethiopia’s Yitayal Atnafu Zerihun at the line. Peres Jepchirchir, the new World Half Marathon Champion was fully 200m clear of Mamitu. Given a 3:15 head-start over the men, she also won the “gender challenge” handicap, worth USD 2,000. The race incorporated the national championships won by Rio-bound Reid Coolsaet (30:19, 8th overall) and Lanni Marchant (33:26, 4th overall).

Next morning 5400 Marathon runners faced overcast skies with a refreshing light breeze and a temperature of 18C Three pacers led Dino Sefir and five others through 10km in 30:14 and halfway in 63:50. From 25km it was just Sefir, fellow Ethiopian Shura Kitata and Kenyan Evans Ruto with Dominic Ondoro just behind the trio. Sefir upped the pace at 27km to drop the two Kenyans and again at 33km to put himself out in front. The pace dropped over the last 5km but his 2:08:14 finish was impressive in the challenging conditions.

Koren Jelala, joint Canadian All-comers record holder with 2:22:43 set at Toronto Waterfront Marathon in 2011, dominated the women’s race. She led through halfway in 1:12:30 with defending champion Aberu Mekuria and Kenyan veteran Isabella Ochichi just behind her. In the second half Jelala battled the conditions to finish almost almost three minutes ahead of Mekuria while Ochichi dropped out after 30km. Canadian Tarah Korir finished fifth with a 14-minute improvement over her marathon debut last October. She was paced most of the way by her husband Wesley, Kenyan MP and Boston 2012 champion.

Austrian Women’s Run, Austria

Sun 22 May 2016

48.1961 16.3944

33000 women – 5700 of them under the age of 18 – from 99 countries took part in the 29th edition of the Österreichischer Frauenlauf in Vienna’s famous Prater park. An elite 5km race in which eight elite international elite and 24 national athletes spearheaded the mass 10km event.

Portugal’s Sara Moreira, second two years ago, went one place and 12 seconds better to outrun the Australian track specialist Louise Wellings. Both runners are bound for the Rio Olympics in August.

Wellings and Moreira sped through the first kilometre in 3:03 closely followed by the Kenyan Viola Jelagat, who finished second last year. After 2km it was Moreira leading Jelegat with Austria’s top 5000m runner Jennifer Wenth, also qualified for Rio, lying in fourth place six seconds behind them.

Moreira pressed on ahead with Wellings vainly giving chase and finishing 13 seconds behind her while Wenth fulfilled her resolution to achieve a podium place by finishing a further 10 seconds down.

The race is the unofficial Austrian 5km road race championship and took place in warm weather with a fantastic festival atmosphere at the start and throughout the course. Runners of all ages – there was an 80-year gap between the youngest (6 years) and oldest – shared the joy of running. Race day concluded with a big Women’s Run party.

Jairus Chanchima and women’s winner Shasho Insermu battled strong winds to win in slow times writes Ken Nakamura. Chanchima surged away from six rivals at 28km leaving Fabiano Joseph, Laban Mutai, Ser-Od Bat-Ochir Taiga Ito, Kazuya Ishida and Shoji Takada all chasing. At 30km he led by 38 seconds and at 35km by nearly a minute and a half. Bat-Ochir closed part of the gap to finish 25 seconds adrift with Taiga a further minute behind.

In the women’s race, Insermu came from behind after 40km to seal her victory, 40 seconds clear of Peruvian Gladys Tejeda who clocked 2:34:54. Insermu became the third Ethiopian woman to win in Nagano after Elfnesh Alemu in 2000 and Fatuma Roba in 2004.

The race also went out slow, but by 5km (18:12) only five runners remained in contention: Insermu, Tejada, Helen Mugo, Winfridah Kebaso and Kaori Yoshida. Tejada made the first move, breaking away from Insermu at 20km to lead by six seconds, and extending it to nearly a minute by 30km (1:46:48). But Insermu regrouped and began to chip away at the gap, reducing it to 19 seconds by 40km before securing the victory in the final kilometre. Yoshida, who also ran a strong final 10km, finished third in 2:35:14.

Sammy Kitwara won in a world leading time after John Maina paced the group through 10km in 28:10. Leonard Komon was clear from the others but in the final kilometres he slowed dramatically to finish fifth.

The women’s race was really challenging, with the first five women running together for the first half before Sara Moreira dropped back. Eunice Chumba also became outpaced but Ethiopia’s Ruti Aga and Wude Ayalew along with Linet Masai all went through 20km in 1:05:50. Aga proved strongest but Ayalew’s performance was something of a return to form.

In the wheelchair races David Weir (GBR) recorded a world record 42:23 minutes over a minute clear of the rest while Rochelle Woods did likewise (49:49) but was pushed to the line by Jade Jones.

Valerie Aiyabei produced a solo run almost from the gun to set a Spanish women’s all-comers’ best writes Emeterio Valiente. She covered the first half in 1:13:01 and then steadily increased her pace over the next 13km, passing 35km in 2:00:05 before crossing the line almost five minutes faster than she had ever run and over five minutes ahead. Pre-race favourite and 2015 winner Aynalem Kassahun never challenged and had to settle for a distant second.

Hampered by strong headwind the men’s race started more slowly than expected. There were no fewer than eight pacemakers with the group which reached halfway in 1:04:20. Shortly after 30km Dino Sefir and Albert Korir moved ahead and Sefir made his winning break with about 4km to go, easily pulling away from Korir. 16,899 runners completed the marathon.

Antarctica Marathon & Half, Antarctica

Sat 12 March 2016

-61.9882 -58.0196

The sold-out field of 183 participants from 22 countries tackled the brutally hilly courses that transverse the rudimentary gravel roads and connect three research bases on King George Island in the South Shetland Islands. The races are held over two consecutive days to abide by an Antarctic environmental restriction of allowing a maximum 100 visitors on shore in any single landing area. Each day’s results are combined to determine the overall and age group winners.

Volatile conditions prevailed on both days. Winds were mild to the start and the temperature around 0C but conditions worsened with 50km/hour winds dropping the wind chill down below -15C. On the second day there was intermittent snow at the start and winds climbed to 80km/hour. For the safety of runners and crew, the maximum finish time was limited to under 5.5 hours. Running in the first wave, Maxime Bondue won by three minutes from marathon debutant Reid Noch. Despite the difficult conditions on the second day Sharon Ryder dominated the women’s field to finish sixth overall and set an unofficial course record.

Maratón Internacional Lala, Mexico

Sun 6 March 2016

25.5428 -103.407

It was hot, dry, and dusty in the high desert of La Lagunera for the 28th edition writes Alan Brookes. It was already 18C when the elite women started at 06:40. The men followed 10 minutes later, then another 5000 runners (a record 28% women) from every state in Mexico and across Latin America. This year’s race sold out within a month — the cap being determined by the number of hotel rooms in Torreón, Gomez Palacio and Lerdo — the three small industrial cities at the hub of ‘La Lagunera’.

Hillary Kimaiyo, who in 2011 ran 2:08:17 on the course to establish Lala as the fastest marathon in all of Latin America, sped through the first kilometre in a hasty 2:51. After a toilet stop at 20k (64:11) the eight-strong chase group consumed him. They passed halfway in 67:40 and 30km in 1:36:41. Julius Keter then began to push the pace and Peru’s Miguel Mallma was the only one brave enough to go with him. Behind them it looked like a battle for third until Mallma dropped out and Colombia’s Andres Ruiz, who was racing for Colombia’s Rio standard of 2:19:00, started to chase. Then a relatively unknown Mexican Javier Vega began to passed what remained of the pack, plus Ruiz, and just fell short of catching Keter before the finish line under “Grito de Triumfo” — a spectacular archway created by architect Mario Talamas Murra in 2013 for the 25th anniversary.

In the women’s race 42 year-old Dulce Maria Rodriguez battled heavy pre-race favourite Ogla Kimaiyo (KEN) for 28km before settling for 2nd. Dulce Maria was Lala champion in 2005 when she set the course record of 2:29:00. Kimaiyo had a comfortable victory but there was still great celebration at the Mexican’s performance and Master’s victory.

Maraton Lala is renowned for its marvellous support and engagement of the local community, that is at the heart of “La Fiesta Lagunera. Last October the race received a “Social Award” from AIMS for its contributions to the community through its “Corre con Causa” programme.

Tokyo Marathon, Japan

35.6895 139.692

Helah Kiprop set a new course record of 2:21:27 after passing through halfway in 1:10:41 writes Ken Nakamura. The lead group then ran a 16:34 5km split — the fastest of the race — and reached 30km in 1:40:26. At 35km (1:57:08) Kiprop had compatriot Edna Kiplagat and the Ethiopian pair of Amane Gobena and Aberu Kebede for company. But Kiprop steadily surged away covering the next 5km in 16:39 while the others all took over 17 minutes. She took almost a minute off the record set by Ethiopia’s Tirfe Tsegaye two years ago and improved her best by over two minutes.

Feyisa Lelisa won his first victory since Xiamen in 2010. He kicked away from last year’s winner Dickson Chumba in the final kilometre but Bernard Kipyego overtook Chumba in the final few metres for second spot. The main pack went through 10km in 29:37 but then slowed slightly to pass halfway in 1:02:52. After nine runners passed 30km in 1:29:49 Chumba made his move and Lelisa went with him. They led by 37 seconds at 35km and 53 seconds at 40km — but then Chumba began to slow dramatically and Feyisa had an untroubled win.

Yuki Takamiya’s eighth place, with an improvement in his personal best by nearly five minutes, came as a surprise even to himself.

Zurich Maratón de Sevilla, Spain

Sun 21 February 2016

37.3753 -5.98888

Kenya’s Cosmas Kiplimo Lagat regained the Zurich Maraton de Sevilla title he won on his marathon debut in 2014, improving his own course record by 19 seconds writes Emeterio Valiente. In 12–13C and a very slight breeze a trio of pacemakers ensured that the course record was under threat from the start. Nine runners passed halfway in 1:03:36 but over the next 9km the lead group started to disintegrate. By 30km only Kiplimo Lagat along with his compatriots Shedreck Kiptoo Kimaiyo and Geoffrey Koech – who were later to finish 11th and drop out just after 35km respectively – remained together at the front. Just before 34km Kiplimo Lagat quickly established a big lead, never to be headed. He passed 40km in 2:01:30 with a sub-2:08 time still likely but was clearly flagging over the final 2km and had to settle for a course record and a personal best.

Spain’s 37-year old international Carles Castillejo came through strongly over the final 7km, having been 10th at 35km and fourth at 40km, to claim the Spanish national title and guarantee a place on Spain’s Rio 2016 Olympic Games team.

Paula Gonzalez won her debut marathon just ahead of Morocco’s Koutar Boulaid. A group of African athletes set the early pace Miriam Wangari, Rael Jepyator and Eunice Jeptoo, plus Ethiopia’s Roman Mengistu, went through halfway in 1:14:15 with Gonzalez and Boulaid over a minute in arrears. Jeptoo broke away from her three rivals at the front shortly before 30km (1:45:45) with Gonzalez and Boulaid almost two minutes adrift. But the pair ran Jeptoo down Jeptoo from 31–37km – Gonzalez with a modest lead over Boulaid which she kept to the end.

RAK Half Marathon, United Arab Emirates

Fri 12 February 2016

25.7863 55.9652

Cynthia Limo moved up to third on the world all-time list for the half marathon, behind Florence Kiplagat and Mary Keitany, with this victory writes Rob Walker. She was to the fore throughout: within a group of seven up to 15km (passing 10km in 31:32) which reduced to just her and world Half Marathon champion Gladys Cherono by 20km (1:02:48). Limo broke away over the last 800m to claim a narrow but confident win.

Of the first six finishers – all under 67 minutes – five set personal bests with Limo taking 37 seconds off her time and Cherono 31 seconds off hers with the dubious bonus of posting the fastest ever non-winning performance. Genet Yalew set an Ethiopian record in third having lost contact with the two Kenyans around 19km.

The men’s pace was sluggish by comparison until the final kilometre when in a thrilling finish four athletes raced to the line within a single second of each other. Birhanu Legese once again proved his finishing power by just holding off Kenya’s Stanley Biwott with both on the same time. A large group had gone through 10km in 29.11 and eight runners were together at 15km (43:28); seven of them remained at the start of the finishing sprint.

Kagawa Marugame International Half Marathon, Japan

Sun 7 February 2016

Eleven runners, including eventual winner Goitom Kifle, Kenya’s Dominic Nyairo, Tanzania’s Fabiano Sulle and Japan’s Keijiro Mogi reached 10km in 28:50 writes Ken Nakamura. By 15km (43:05) four remained: Kifle, Sulle, Nyairo and Mogi. Sulle gradually fell off the pace and at 20km Kifle led Mogi and Nyairo by four seconds. The Eritrean held on for the win by just one second ahead of Nyairo. Technically speaking, 18-year-old Nyairo was making his half-marathon debut but the Japan-based Kenyan ran the 23.1km stage at last month’s Hakone Ekiden in 1:07:20 (1:01:30 half marathon pace). Mogi’s best had been a modest 1:03:11 but the 20-year-old reduced that to 1:00:54 to move to sixth on the Japanese all-time list.

World marathon bronze medallist Eunice Kirwa ran aggressively in the women’s race, reaching 10km in 31:51 at which point she led Diane Nukuri by 32 seconds and was on course-record pace. With no one to push her Kirwa could not maintain her momentum but finished with a 400m winning margin and a personal best time. Despite setting a PB and running more than a minute quicker than her winning time from last year Eloise Wellings’ performance placed her only third.

The third edition — organized by the ASD RuNaples in cooperation with the municipality of Napoli and the Institute Mostra d’Oltremare — enjoyed record attendance with 2736 runners representing 26 countries.

The Mayor of Naples flagged the race off on a sunny and mild morning. Runners went along the sea front with the Castel dell’Ovo and through the main streets of the historical centre until returning to Fuorigrotta and finishing in the Mostra d’Oltremare Park by the the Fontana dell’Esedra.

Osaka Women’s Marathon, Japan

Sun 31 January 2016

34.6937 135.502

Kayoko Fukushi put more than six minutes between herself and her nearest rival and almost certainly clinched Olympic Games selection writes Ken Nakamura.

The race started fast in a bid to beat the 2:22:30 Olympic qualifying standard, in sunny conditions with the temperature at 9C. The lead pack quickly reduced to six runners. By 15km (49:57) it was down to Fukushi, Risa Takenaka and Kenyan Selly Chepyego, plus two pace makers. They passed halfway on course record (2:21:18) schedule with 1:10:27 but the fast pace started to take a toll after 24km. Takenaka and then Chepyego drifted back but Fukushi stayed close to the remaining pacemaker. By 30km she was left alone in front in her quest for a fast time. Without help she started to slow and the race record drifted out of reach leaving her to concentrate on beating 2:22:30.

She entered the Nagai Stadium to take her second Osaka title, after winning in 2013, and beat her personal best by 2:04. Fukushi’s huge winning margin of 6:03 was less than that of Ireland’s Carey May who won the 1983 edition of the race by 6:20.

Unless two runners go faster than Fukushi in the forthcoming Nagoya Marathon she will be on the plane to Rio. In her debut at the 2008 Osaka Women’s Marathon she led most of the way but hit the wall hard and finished in a disappointing 2:40:54. She ran under 2:25 three times between 2011 and 2015 but until now never quite produced the fast time many thought her capable of.

Standard Chartered Hong Kong Marathon, Hong Kong, China

Sun 17 January 2016

22.3964 114.109

In monsoon rain Mike Kiprtotich Mutai put on a storming finale in the last 2km to pull clear of his compatriot Lawrence Cherono with only 400m to go writes Pat Butcher. Given the conditions it was a good time — only a minute shy of the course record of 2:11:27, set two years ago by this year’s third placer, Ethiopia’s Feyera Gemeda.

Former Kenyan marathoner Thomas Kiprotich has been living and coaching in Hong Kong for the last eight years. Now moving into athlete management he was responsible for a trio of runners who finished first, fourth and seventh.

Cherono had declared himself a likely winner, whatever the conditions, prior to the race, but afterwards admitted: “I still thought I was going to win but he was too strong for me in the end.” Gemeda dropped off the pace at the point where Mutai and Cherono began their duel after 40km.

In the women’s race half a dozen leaders stayed together until Letebrhan Haylay Gebreslasea, from the Tigre Province in northern Ethiopia, split up the group at 36km. Ayelu Lemma Geda responded and although the gap between them at the end was only two seconds, Geda never got on level terms with Gebreslasea who was not threatened.

Local runner Yu Kit Ching of Hong Kong had already been selected for the Rio Olympics but took sixth place hard on the heels of five quality Ethiopians (one running for Bahrain). She finished only 14 seconds slower than her best.

Standard Chartered Mumbai Marathon, India

Sun 17 January 2016

19.076 72.8777

In relatively cool conditions (21C at 07.20 start) a large group in the men’s race followed the pace to pass halfway in 1:04:58. Of these the first three returned a ‘negative split’ despite the gruelling hill at 35km. It was slightly before that (seven remained together at 32km) when the break came but Gideon Kipketer, who was responsible for it, surged ever faster forward and gave no chance to his pursuers. He crossed the line in a new course record time 57 seconds faster than that set by Jackson Kiprop (who finished 8th) in 2013.

It was entirely different in the women’s race where Shuko Genemo asserted her superiority from an early stage. By 13km she had already gained a few seconds’ advantage and over the 4km-long ‘Sealink’ Bridge she forged ahead to lead by 1:50 at 20km, passing halfway in 1:12:42. Unlike the men even she could not return a faster second half but she slowed considerably less than those she had already left in her trail to win by over four minutes.

In both men’s and women’s races Indian runners performed creditably. After the women’s breakthrough last year when the course record was improved by over 10 minutes the men followed with the first two inside the previous record and a surprising show of strength behind them with six coming in under 2:21.

In addition to the Marathon, for which about 5000 registered, there were half marathon (14,000) and 5.8km fun run events (21,000) on what has become celebrated city-wide as ‘Marathon Day’ in Mumbai.

Xiamen International Marathon, China

Sat 2 January 2016

24.4798 118.089

Vincent Kipruto won a six-man battle over the last 10km writes Vincent Wu.

A group of 13 kept to a steady early pace but for the last 10km it was Kipruto pitted against five Ethiopian rivals. But one by one they fell behind until after 39km only 19-year old Shura Kitata was left. Kipruto outkicked him over the final 200m. His winning time was the slowest in the latest nine editions and almost four minutes away from the course record of 2:06:19 set by Moses Mosop last year.

Worknesh Edesa sliced more than seven minutes off her best time extending Ethiopia’s winning streak in the women’s race to seven years. She stayed in the leading group, passing 10km in 34:42 and 20km in 1:08:07, before making a solo run for home from around 25km. More than 27,000 runners competed with another 21,000 taking part in the associated 5km.
