Six in six for Forde

“And the winner is Cleveland Forde” seems to be the recurring theme of the annual Massy Guyana 10km road race.

The ‘Little Kenyan’ continued his dominance of the event yesterday, running away with the men’s title for the sixth consecutive year, showing that the last minute change of the course must have been the only thing that changed in his script

Forde bagged another gold medal by completing the trek which started at Diamond (instead of the previously advertised Vreed-en-Hoop) and ended at Massy’s Ruimveldt office in 33 minutes and 10 seconds, amidst logistical glitches with the Demerara Harbour Bridge.

Forde, 30, stopped the clock five seconds faster than he did last year and bettered his 2014’s performance by 10 seconds.
