Lemi get this straight: We need to ‘Hayle’ Tata Mumbai Marathon (TMM) men’s winner Hayle Lemi, who defended his title in style on a Sunday, when the mercury showed little mercy. 

The Ethiopian became only the second athlete to defend the men’s crown in the history of the TMM, breaking the tape at 2:07:50. Kenya’s John Kelai had previously won titles in 2007 and 2008.
