The halfway point of 1:13:00 suggested the course record of 2:25:04 set last year was not in jeopardy.<\/p>\n<p>The debutant Tsegaye ruled the race over the following kilometres with Begna struggling with the rhythm before finally losing contact with the main group. She reached 30 kilometres in 1:43:39 with a two-second advantage on Chebitok and Alemu.<\/p>\n<p>The key move came shortly after the 35 kilometre point when Chebitok heated up the pace to kill the race thanks to a 16:58 five-kilometre stretch to build a clear advantage of no less than 53 seconds on Tsegaye with some two kilometres remaining.<\/p>\n<p>Chebitok was an overwhelming victor thanks to a 2:25:49 clocking to Tsegaye\u2019s 2:27:06. Alemu took the minor place on the podium in 2:28:19, her first ever effort under the 2:30 barrier.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I\u2019m both surprised and satisfied with my outcome,&#8221; the 28-year-old Chebitok said. &#8220;I consider myself a half marathon specialist but after such a positive experience like today\u2019s I\u2019m sure I\u2019ll tackle the marathon more times. I might have run even faster today but my pacesetter Tom Payn suffered an injury by halfway; anyway, I completed a great run.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>On a statistical note, both winners managed negative splits over the two halves (1:04:21\/1:03:47 for Maritim, 1:13:00\/1:12:49 by Chebitok.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Leading results:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Men &#8211;<\/strong><\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Anthony Maritim (KEN) 2:08:08<\/li>\n<li>Silas Too (KEN) 2:08:25<\/li>\n<li>Hillay Kipchumba (KEN) 2:08:52<\/li>\n<li>Tariku Kinfu (ETH) 2:09:25<\/li>\n<li>Tsegaye Kebede (ETH) 2:09:25<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p><strong>Women &#8211;<\/strong><\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Ruth Chebitok (KEN) 2:25:49<\/li>\n<li>Tsegaye Belaynesh Beyene (ETH) 2:27:06<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>3 Worknesh Alemu (ETH) 2:28:19<\/p>\n<ol start=\"4\">\n<li>Alemitu Begna (ETH) 2:30:54<\/li>\n<li>Lucy Ndungo Wanjiku (KEN) 2:35:42<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>BARCELONA, Spain, Mar 11- Anthony Maritim and Ruth Chebitok scored a double victory for Kenya at the Zurich Marat\u00f3 de Barcelona, an IAAF Bronze Label road race, on Sunday.
