| Marathon star Victor Chumo |
Victor Chumo was perhaps the least-heralded of the contingent of Kenyan runners who stood on the start line, but he produced the best race of his life to come out on top at the 43rd edition of the famous Corrida Pedestre International de Houilles, an IAAF Silver Label Road Race on Sunday.
Clearly feeling good despite the chilly conditions which saw most of the leading runners in long-sleeved T-shirts and many of them gloves and beanies, Chumo broke away from the leading pack early in the second half of the 10km race with only Eritrea’s 2012 IAAF World Junior Championships 5000m silver medallist Abrar Osman for company.
