As I was walking in Albuquerque, New Mexico yesterday with our RN webmaster, Chuck Bartlett, results from around the world were arriving on my iphone. The health of our sport is amazing and the grass roots grown would surprise anyone who follows it.

The Road Runners Clubs of America convention ended on Sunday, May 5 and the 59th convention is already in planning stages. Gary Morgan, Mr. Ubiquitous, a man more well travelled than I, has left Albquerque, as he pursues his goal of visiting 50 national parks. On Saturday night though, Gary video taped and I interviewed Tom Fleming, one of the most successful and colorful runners in our sport. A perfect ending to a fantastic convention and RN publishers meetings.

Watch for a new mobile app from the Running Network over the next month, with all 28 of our websites, social media links, and digital issues as well as websites of our 23 titles! It will be free to you, our readers. 

Since 1986, the Running Network has been the clearing house for running information. Our goal today is quite simple: give you, the runner, informed content when you want it, how you want it and where you want it. 

Technology moves on, but at the end the day, man and woman are to use technology, in my mind to make life better and bring people closer. Social media is part of that attempt, but at the end of the day, nothing is a like a walk in Old town Albuquerque, or a run around Stevens Creek Dam in Mountain View. 


TE

Sigei and Kabuu
BERLIN (GER, May 5): Both winners of the BIG 25 Berlin clocked world leading 25 k times despite warm weather conditions. While Kenya’s Richard Sigei crossed the line in the Olympic Stadium in 1:13:34 fellow Kenyan Lucy Kabuu ran 1:21:37. High temperatures during the race made it impossible for the 29 year-old to come closer to the world record she wanted to attack. Mary Keitany (Kenya) established this mark three years ago in the BIG 25 Berlin with 1:19:53.  In total 10 091 runners competed. Behind the Kenyan winner Daniel Chepyegon from Uganda was second with 1:14:17. Third placed Jacob Kendagor, who had won the Berlin half marathon a month ago, also clocked a sub 1:15 time (1:14:47). There was bad luck for Eritrea’s Ghirmay Ghebreslassie who intended to attack the unofficial world junior record of 1:13:17. The 17 year-old was denied a flight from Amsterdam to Berlin because of a visa problem. Agnes Mutune was second with 1:23:08, followed by Esther Chemtai (1:23:18) and Caroline Kilel (1:26:14), the Boston Marathon winner from 2011. Organisers are informing.

April and Burkovska course records

Fellow-Ethiopian Samuel Getachew Demie took third (2:12:38) while Kenyans Jonathan Yego (2:13:18), Isaac Arusei (2:13:23) and Wilfred Kigen (2:13:41) followed in fourth to sixth places. Edinah Kwambai ran a fine debut in warm conditions with 2:29:49 and took second.
