Tiki Gelana of Ethiopia broke away after 5Km and won the 66th annual Kagawa-Marugame Half Marathon race here today by nearly two minutes in 1:08:48.  As expected, Gelana set a huge personal best, which stood at 1:10:22 until this morning.

Meanwhile, a race of attrition was in progress in the large chase pack behind the Ethiopian. By 20Km the chase pack was reduced to Kaoru Nagao, Sayo Nomura, Misato Horie and Mai Ito, and eventually, they finished second, third, fourth and fifth, respectively.

In the men’s race, pre-race favourite Matthew Kisorio of Kenya collected a convincing win after breaking away from the field just four kilometres into the race.
