MANCHESTER, England (The Canadian Press) — Ethiopia’s Haile Gebrselassie won the 10-kilometre Great Manchester Run on Sunday, May 17.
The 36-year-old Ethiopian finished in 27 minutes 39 seconds. He just missed out on breaking the 27:21 course record set by Kenya’s Micah Kogo in 2007.
Ali Mabrouk El Zaidi of Libya was second in 28:13.
Gebrselassie lost his world 10-kilometre road mark in March when Kogo ran in 27:01 in the Netherlands.
