For International Elite men's runners Alphonce Simbu of Tanzania and Joshua Kipkorir of Kenya the last four kilometers of their 42-km run, was very crucial, as that would decide the eventual winner. The journey though wasn't an easy one as they both faced intruders at the 38-km mark at GirgaumChowpatty on Marine Drive, towards the finish line at CST.
