Description

The parade of Kenyans continued and this time they took it to another level, shattering records across the board. The men’s mark fell to the fleet feet of Joseph Kimani, the pre-race pick who lived up to his press clippings. He ran the course in 31:36, smashing Benson Masya’s 1992 standard by 16 seconds. Kimani spotted countryman Peter Githuka what seemed to be a comfortable lead before he ran him down over the last couple of miles. Catherine Ndereba’s performance in winning the women’s race was equally impressive, as the diminutive Kenyan obliterated Lynn Jennings ‘92 course record by 36 seconds, running 35:37. In all, nine of the top 10 men and four of the top six women were from Kenya.  A new men’s wheelchair record was also set as Craig Blanchette raced to victory in 24:01. The women’s wheelchair winner was Rose Winand of Boston.
