Pattaya Marathon 2010 Photos

Here’s a few Photos from the Pattaya Marathon 2010.

The 16th Pattaya Marathon was once again a great success, weather conditions were near perfect for the race, with the sun mainly obscured by cloud and an early start to the proceedings most competitors were back before the temperature rose.

Once again the Kenyans dominated in both the Mens and Womens events, Maisei Julius Kiplimo took first place in the Mens, and Fridah Tepkite Lopeda took first place in the Ladies marathon.
