Another record assault for Wanjiru at the Hague – City-Pier-City Half Marathon preview – Ambitious 27:30 pace requested

The Hague, The Netherlands – He may only be 20-years-old but Samuel Wanjiru knows what he wants. The young Kenyan who just five weeks ago recaptured the World Record* in the Half Marathon wants to better the 58:53 clocking he set in Ras al Khaimah on 9 February.

„It was very hot and hilly then. I like the temperature here better,“ Wanjiru said on the even of his outing at the 33rd edition of the Fortis City-Pier-City half marathon set for Saturday (17) at The Hague.

The slim Kenyan, who lives alternately in Japan and Kenya, is expected to once again set off a blistering pace on Saturday.
