Ethiopia's Mulu Seboka didn't let humid and breezy conditions slow her down as she set a new personal best of 2:29:06 to convincingly win the 9th Annual Scotiabank Toronto Waterfront Marathon. Her performance smashed the previos course record by more than four minutes, set last year by compatriot Asha Gigi, who was third today. Ukraine's Olena Shurkhno ran a very smart race to come through for second in 2:30:13, a PR by more three minutes. The men's race proved far more tactical, and was decided in an exciting sprint to the line as Kenneth Mungara held off fellow-Kenyan Peter Kiprotich by 2 seconds for the victory, 2:11:01 to 2:11:03.
