Mutai also solidified his lead in the ’12 WMM title chase with three victories The rookie Kimmeto in three different cities. “For me it is special to win here in seemed content just to Berlin after finishing 2nd here in 2010, I have now won in different places with follow training-mate Mutai hilly courses and flat courses. To win in in the closing stages different places is not easy.” Race-day once again broke near per- fect in the German capital save some off- and-on swirling winds, and after a 14:57 opening 5K, the lead pack of four pacers and five actual racers upped the tempo with 14:44, 14:41 and 14:40 segments to cross halfway in 62:12. The pace continued to quicken with 14:36 and 14:33 splits as only Jonathon Maiyo and reigning world Junior XC champ Geoffrey Kipsang remained in the hunt with Mutai and Kimetto when the final pacer Wilfred Kirwa retired at 31K. Beyond his own spectacular achieve- ments, Mutai directs an ever expanding training group of runners that includes Kimetto (who set the 25K WR four months ago in this same city). In the 32nd kilometer, coach Mutai led a demonstration in radical surging as he blasted a 2:43 kilo that dispatched Maiyo and Kipsang, and a subsequent 2:48 put the duo at 2:03:29 pace, ahead of Patrick Makau’s course and WR 2:03:38 set last year in Berlin. Yet Mutai and Kimetto’s move that blew the race open may have also scuttled the record chase. Splitting 14:19 from 30–35K, Mutai recalls “I tried pushing it like fartlek and thought maybe it was possible to break the World Record, but after 37K I got some pain in my left hamstring from the JIRO MOCHIZUKI/PHOTO RUN sprinting. I was having some problems and could not push the pace but I said, ‘Let me just maintain to the finish line.’ ” Reeling from exit wounds of the ear- lier 5:31 2K burst, the two athletes decel- erated sharply over the final kilos as just
