Kenya's Wilson Kipsang sets world record to win Berlin Marathon

BERLIN -- Wilson Kipsang of Kenya did what he said he'd do on Sunday, when he broke the world record in style to win the 40th Berlin Marathon.
After suggesting he was in the form to challenge compatriot Patrick Makau's 2011 time of 2 hours, 3 minutes, 38 seconds set in Berlin, the 31-year-old Kipsang beat the record by 15 seconds to set a new world best of 2:03:23.
"Looking at my marathon progress and career so far, I still think I have the potential to run faster. Anything under 2:03:23 would do," said Kipsang, who was just four seconds short of Makau's time in Frankfurt in 2011.
It was the eighth world record in Berlin in 15 years, strengthening its reputation as the world's fastest course.

Kirstie Trup: Acid attack victim vows to return to Zanzibar, but is ‘frustrated’ at slow progress of case

One of the two young women who suffered horrific injuries in a seemingly unprovoked acid attack in Zanzibar has vowed to return to the area to continue her humanitarian work, but has expressed annoyance at the lack of progress in their case. Eighteen-year-olds Kirstie Trup and Katie Gee, both from London, were volunteering with disadvantaged children in the East African nation of Tanzania when the incident happened. They were walking through the Stone Town area of Zanzibar City after dining out when two smiling men on a moped threw acid on them as they whizzed past. Brave Trup has now said that she feels ‘very frustrated and upset that our attackers haven’t been caught,’ and fears that they never will be. Speaking to the Sunday Times, she questioned why, despite giving a detailed description of the event, her attackers have not be brought to justice in a community in which ‘everyone knows everyone.’ ‘Stone Town is too small for it to be this hard and I fear they will never be caught,’ she said.
