Kenyan Runners win LA Marathon

Daniel Limo, a 31-year-old Kenyan, won the men’s side of the 30th Anniversary Los Angeles Marathon today, with an unofficial time of 2:10:36.

Ogla Kimaiyo, 26, also of Kenya, was the fastest woman, with an unofficial 2:54:34.

Temperatures at the finish line, as the elite runners crossed, were a temperate 76 degrees.

Hot temperatures that may cause problems for the amateurs, later in the day, had not materialized and the 30-minute advance in the start time also kept runners cool in the first two hours.

Jared Ward was the fastest American, sprinting into third place with an unofficial time of 2:12:56
