Sanyo Ladies Road Race Entry Lists


Last year Margaret Akidor ran a 2-minute PB of 1:09:29 to win the Sanyo Ladies Road Race half marathon. She's back Sunday to try to make it 3 in a row, but she's got serious competition from Pauline Kamulu, 1:07:22 in Marugame last year, and last year's 10 km CR breaker Agnes Mwikali, making her debut here. 31:17.40 runner Tabitha Njeri is also debuting. The domestic field is relatively weak, with no current sub-1:10 Japanese women and Rinka Hida topping the list at 1:10:10.

2nd and 3rd in the 10 km last year, Janet Nyiva and Kaede Kawamura are sticking to the shorter race again this year, and in place of Mwikali they've got Naomi Muthoni, 31:15 in Sanyo 3 years ago, to deal with. Sub-15 runner Susan Kamotho is also debuting.
