This past weekend was quite eventful for the world’s marathoning community.
He is a recap of some of the most notable marathons from last weekend:
ING Amsterdam Marathon:
- Kenya swept the event. Solomon Busendich won the men’s field in 2:08:52 and Rose Cheruiyot was the female winner with a time of 2:28:26.
- Last year’s fastest time, Haile Gebrselassie’s 2:06:20, took place at the Amsterdam Marathon. However, heavy winds prevented a repeat this year.
ANA Beijing International Marathon:
- On the men’s side, Kwambai won the $20,00 grand prize by running the race in 2:10:36. This year’s Rome marathon winner, fellow Kenyan David Kipkorir, came in second and finished only 10 seconds behind Kwambai.
- In the women’s race - China’s own runners were dominating; making up seven of the the top ten finishing spots. Sun Weiwei finished #1 in 2:34:41 and won $15,000 in prize money.
