This weekend saw a lot of great racing, with at least 10 runners below 2 hours and 7 minutes in races around the world. Six of them were in Paris alone!

Haile Gebrselassie Runs 2:02:37 at Marathon Des Sables in Morocco!

By on Wednesday, April 1st, 2009 | 13 Comments

Having broken the world record in the marathon a couple times over the past few years, you had to expect that Haile Gebrselassie was going to be doing something special again in the next few.
