Kenya’s Patrick Makau broke the World Marathon Record in Berlin Marathon today. Makau finished in 2 hours, 3 minutes, 38 seconds breaking the record previously held by Haile Gebrselassie of Ethiopia at 2:03.59. His record led to him ruling today’s discussions in social media with Patrick Makau trending worldwide on Twitter and most Facebook updates mentioning him.
The last time Kenya ruled social media was during the referendum or during the 2008 PEV. It was such a relief seeing Makau rule the social media albeit briefly.
