Karlovy Vary Half Marathon Rapid Recap
It was a hot evening in the Czech Republic where we saw a Kenyan sweep. On the men's side Abraham Akopesha pulled away from the lead pack late in the race to secure the win in 1:02:09.


On the women's side Joyciline Jepkosgei set a new personal best by 2 seconds running 1:09:07 which also was a new course record earning her 1,000 euro bonus.


And on a lighter note during Akopesha's finish a man on a bike with a go pro broke the tape seconds before Akopesha.
