flat, fast, traffic free course along Toronto/Lake Ontario waterfront

Kenyan  Daniel Rono ran his marathon streak to three consecutive victories yesterday, as he defeated a high-quality field in challenging, windy conditions on the Toronto Waterfront. His 2:10:15 took a minute and a half of the previous course record of 2:11:57, set by Simon Bor last year. His time was only 20 seconds off the Canadian all-comers mark [2:09:55], and represents the third fastest marathon ever run on Canadian soil.
