Course records went cartwheeling, biting the Mumbai dust as the bar moved higher in the international elite men and women’s sections of the Tata Mumbai Marathon (TMM) on Sunday. Ethiopia’s Hayle Lemi, stopped the clock at 02:07:32, under Derara Harisa’s Mumbai record of 2:08:09. Lemi, who really pushed after 28 km, took home USD 45,000 for winning the race, plus another USD 15,000 as course record bonus. That’s approximately Rs 49.5 lakh cumulatively.
