UPDATE: Rubber slaps pavement in Sask. Marathon
Runners from across the country are in Saskatoon to take part in the 2012 Saskatchewan Marathon, including seasoned athlete Brendan Lunty who crossed the finish line first on Sunday.
“It feels really good,” said Lunty, who travelled from Camrose, Alta. for the race.
Lunty, who finished with an unofficial time of two hours and 34 minutes, said although he led the race the entire way through, he was surprised he didn't see Saskatoon runner Jason Warick.
“I kept looking over my shoulder and expected to see Jason right behind,” said Lunty.
