The former Senate majority leader announced the news on his social media pages saying limits were meant to be pushed.
Unlike his countrymen who are known to be world champions in long distance races, Murkomen ran a slower race hitting the
30-kilometre mark in three hours and 12 minutes but since it was the first time he achieved the feat, he argued barriers
would be broken in future.
-Unlike his countrymen who are known to be world champions in long distance races, Murkomen ran a slower race completing each 10km at an average of one hour and four minutes.
- Kenyans on social media wondered why the former Senate majority leader skipped the Jamhuri Day celebrations that were held at Nyayo Stadium
- Machakos Governor Alfred Mutua had in June joined his wife Lillian to finish a 35km race to celebrate her birthday
when she turned 35
