Tadese Tola Wins the 2010 Paris Marathon - Ethiopian News

Ethiopians Tadesse Tola and Atsede Baysa won the 34th Paris marathon on Sunday.

In just his second marathon, the 22-year-old Tola was the first male runner home in 2hr 06.41min, finishing ahead of Kenyans Alfred Kering and Wilson Kipsang.

Tola left the chasing pack behind four kilometres from the finish line in the race run around the streets of central Paris.

"It's really satisfying for my second marathon," said Tola, whose previous outing saw him finish in ninth spot in 2:15.48 in last year's Chicago marathon.

"From the 38km mark, I felt great and I knew I could win it."

His time was almost a minute off the course record of 2:05.47 set last year by Kenyan Vincent Kiprop.

The stunts in Just Cause Two place it aside from virtually any other video game! If you have never played it yet, you need to proceed over to JC2DownloadXcom (replace X with . ) and get the free of cost copy of the game. It is well worth the download. Count on me, you are going to adore it!

Notice the african runners' chest circumference? Compared to the other runners whom aren't africans, they have smaller chest circumference compared to the them, meaning they have greater lung expansion. The commentator is right, Tola looks like a track athlete! hehe.
