A Cross Continents Marathon

The signature of this event is to run cross continents. It was fun to do so. The route is beautiful. The race took over the cross-continent bridge and some good sections of Istanbul major streets. The marathon finished in the center of the city. The marathon was well-organized. Spectators were cheering close to the end of the race. The ferry took an hour to get to the starting area. I took 7:40am ferry. I was barely making the start. There was an 8:00am ferry. It would be nice to have a clear info about which ferry should the runners take. This was the first time I visited Turkey. I was able to use this opportunity to tour around. Turkey is a good vacation destination. It has rich culture, beautiful nature scenery, fascinating history, and friendly people.

N Kolay Istanbul Marathon: Kipkemboi and Dalasa take Istanbul titles as warm sunshine ruined record attempts

Finishing runner-up a year ago Robert Kipkemboi came back and won the N Kolay Istanbul Marathon in a thrilling battle: The Kenyan clocked 2:10:18 after dropping Marius Kimutai in the last kilometre of the race during an uphill stretch. With the weather getting sunny and temperatures soaring above 20 Celsius during the second half of the race hopes for a men's course best and a Turkish allcomers' record melted away. Sechale Dalasa, who already won the Rome Marathon this spring, took the race in a personal best of 2:25:54.
