Nineteen-year-old Usilah Koech won the race in 15 minutes, 30 seconds, and said she was using the event to prepare for the Telekom Marathon, to be run on 20 December. Jackline Mukiti was the runner-up in 15:45, with the veteran Joyce Wangui, third in 15:50. The 35-year-old was 22nd at the Nairobi Stanchart Marathon in October. Today’s race was organised by Kenyan-born Dutch woman, Lornah Kiplagat, who is one of Shoe4Africa’s ambassadors, and American author Toby Tanser, who is the founder of the Shoe4Africa Foundation, a US charity donating shoes to Africa. Following the race a very special football match took place which drew together some of the all-time greats of Kenyan athletics.

  • Ryan Hall Inspiring with the Gift
    Ryan Hall Inspiring With the Gift. by TIto MoraLES he men’s Olympic Marathon Trials come around only once every four years, Tand the stakes are always high. On the morning of November 3, 2007, 130 of the country’s best marathon- ers, including 25-year-old Ryan Hall, clustered in the predawn darkness near Rockefeller Center to vie for the right to represent the United States at the 2008 Olympic Games. While all had spent the better part of their lives training for this moment, only three would make the team. The atmosphere for these Trials was particularly electric. For the first time in history, the competition was being staged in conjunction with the New York City Marathon, one of the highest-profile races on the planet. The course, which featured five challenging loops through Central Park, had been designed for big- ger crowd support and heightened drama. Anything to do with the Big Apple, it seems, always equates to heightened drama. Aside from Hall, the field included all three returning marathoners from the 2004 Olympic team: Meb Keflezighi, who earned a silver medal in Athens; Alan Culpepper; and Dan Browne. Other headliners included Khalid Khannouchi, a former world record holder who has thrice broken 2:06 in his illustrious career; the Hansons-Brooks team, a 13-member contingent led by Brian Sell; Ryan Shay, the 2003 USATF marathon champion; and Abdi Abdirahman, whose marathon PR of 2:08:56 had earned him the third seed. But the two runners who seemed to be bringing the most buzz to the proceed- ings were upstarts Hall and Dathan Ritzenhein, 24—two of “the big three” from the celebrated high school class of 2001.
