By AYUMBA AYODIMore by this AuthorWorld marathon champion Geoffrey Kirui has advised chief protagonists during the Berlin Marathon due September 24 to run a “their own race” if they want to break the World Record. Kirui said that Kenyans Olympic marathon champion Eliud Kipchoge and Wilson Kipsang and their rival Kenenisa Bekele from Ethiopia, are capable of breaking the World Record if only they sacrifice and sincerely go for it. We can only pray for them to deliver.”Bekele ran the second fastest time in marathon history when he won last year’s Berlin Marathon in 2:03:03, missing the world record by six seconds. Kipsang broke compatriot Patrick Makau’s world record with victory at 2013 Berlin Marathon in 2:03:23 before Kimetto downed it a year later. Kipchoge boosts of the second fastest time in the pack, having retained last year’s London Marathon title in 2:03:05, missing the world record by eight seconds.
