Kenyan Marathoners

"We will break records." Ten Kenyan marathoners Monday pose for cameras upon arrival at Incheon International Airport to run in the 2010 Seoul International Marathon, which is also the 81st edition of the Dong-A Marathon. The Kenyans are expected to serve as pacemakers in the event. The event record is two hours, seven minutes and six seconds set by Gert Thys in 2004. If a runner covers five kilometers in 15 minutes, he or she will finish the race in two hours, six minutes and 35 seconds.
