Ivuti and Shobukhova win Prague half marathon

Kenyan runner Patrick Ivuti won the ninth Prague half-marathon on Saturday with a course record of one hour and one minute. The women's race was won by Russian Lilya Shobukhova, who was a silver medallist in the 5000 m at last year's European Championships. Just under 6000 people participated in the race, the highest number in the event's history. Former Czech prime minister and current European Commissioner Vladimir Spidla also took part.
