Kenya's Sabastian Sawe, Rosemary Wanjiru Triumph In Berlin Marathon
Fellow Ethiopian Azmera Gebru: Kenya's Sabastian Sawe claimed a commanding victory in the 51st edition of the Berlin Marathon in a time of 2:02:16, while his compatriot Rosemary Wanjiru won the women's race in 2:21:05 on Sunday.
Sawe delivered one of the fastest performances of the year but narrowly missed both course and world records. Japan's Akira Akasaki produced a surprise by taking second place in 2:06:15.
Sawe, 29, set a blistering pace from the start despite unusually warm conditions. Defending champion Milkesa Mengesha of Ethiopia initially tried to stay close but was unable to keep up and fell back before the halfway mark. From then on, Sawe ran alone at the front, gradually extending his lead while still chasing record pace.
