With a nice weather and a beautiful day for a run, Kenya's Peter Kamais broke the men's course record at the 2012 Xiamen Marathon on Saturday. Kamais has another feather in his cap winning last year’s men's New York City Half Marathon in the year 2010, clocking 2 hours, 7 minutes to finish first.
Peter Kamais told reporters, "I did good and I fell very proud about the result today.". "It rained yesterday and the temperature got low, but the weather today is in good condition, which helped me to have a better performance, especially in the first half of the race".
Saturday's temperatures were ideal, hovered between 11and 16 Centigrade, with no strong wind but a gentle breeze behind the runners.
In the women section, Ethiopia's Ashu Kasim came in first with a time of 2:23:09. China’s runner, Jin Lingling, finished sixth in the women's race in 2:38:04.
Xiamen race was first held in 2003 and sanctioned in 2007 as a Gold Label Road Race by the International Association of Athletics Federations. 2012 Xiamen International Marathon marks the 10th anniversary of the event.
