Kipsang fastest

WILSON Kipsang of Kenya ran the second fastest marathon in winning the Frankfurt race yesterday only four seconds outside the world record. Kipsang won the Frankfurt Marathon for the second straight year in 2 hours, 3 minutes and 42 seconds, barely missing the world mark in mild weather and nearly perfect conditions. "It's OK," the 29-year-old Kipsang said. "I'm very happy with the time." Patrick Makau of Kenya won the Berlin Marathon one month ago with the world record time of 2:03.38. Levy Matebo finished second in 2:05:16 with Albert Matebor third. Kenyans took 10 of the top 11 places.
