Kabarak University Half Marathon will after all become an annual event, officials have confirmed. 

Vice Chancellor Professor Henry Kiplagat confirmed the new development to a race that was being run for the second time in six years after the inaugural race won by former Briston Marathon champion Peter Kemeli and former Berlin Half marathon champion Valentine Keterin who failed to finish in the medal bracket over the weekend.

 However, he promised to make it better than the previous two editions next season in order to attract more of top runners in future editions. [Ben Ahenda]
