Nike Air Max 270 White ," Hong Kong coach, Leigh Jones who expected a muchtougher contest stated.

HANGZHOU, Jan. 21 (Xinhua) -- China has established its first database on prostate cancer, a disease of rising frequency in an aging China.
Initiated by Wu Jieping Medical Foundation
Nike Air Max 270 Triple White , the Chinese Prostate Cancer Database (C-CaP) opened on Monday in Zhejiang Cancer Hospital in Hangzhou, east China's Zhejiang Province. The database will collect information on diagnosis and treatment to track its incidence and development.
The second most common cancer in men globally, prostate cancer is on the increase in China. Data from the Chinese Anti-cancer Association show the cancer's incidence in China increased more than tenfold in the past two decades.
Health experts believe China's aging population and the use of more advanced detection methods have contributed to the increasing incidence.
ELDORET, Kenya, Dec. 4 (Xinhua) -- It is a matter of time before the marathon world record deeps under the two hour three minutes mark.
That was the parting shot that Chicago and Tokyo marathon Champion Dennis Kimetto said after his training in Iten on Wednesday. Kenyan Wilson Kipsang set a world record of 2:03:23 when he won Berlin marathon in September crushing compatriot's Patrick Makau's 2:03:38.
"If you look at how fast people are running now
Nike Air Max 270 Triple Black , it is obvious somebody will run under Two hours and three minutes very soon. But that is not what concerns me most. I want to see if I can break the world record. I missed that chance in Chicago in October, but I have not given up yet," the 29-year-old told Xinhua Wednesday in Iten.
Kimetto, who holds the world record over 25km, ran with two course record set in Tokyo in February last year and Chicago in October.
In Tokyo
Nike Air Max 270 , he run 2:06:50, which was his second marathon, after his debut in Berlin in 2012, where he finished second to training mate Geoffrey Mutai.
Kimetto, in October
Air Max 270 Ultramarine , broke the year-old Chicago Marathon course record by 53 seconds to win in 2:03:45, the fastest time ever run in the United States on a record-eligible course. Of course in 2010, Mutai ran 2:03:02 in Boston, but IAAF never ratified it.
But that is not of concern to Kimetto, who has returned to training ahead of next year's marathons. The Chicago marathon champion has opted to skip his title defence in Tokyo in Feb. 13 and instead will put in extra hours to be fit for the Boston marathon race
Air Max 270 White , which has a fatter cheque at 150,000 U.S. dollars for the winner.
"I will not defend my crown in Tokyo. I have got this lucrative offer to run in Boston and I have to do everything right to see that I win there," Kimetto told Xinhua.
"The target is to run faster, but we all know that the Boston Marathon course is not certified by the IAAF for a world record so, it is important to win in a faster time
Air Max 270 Black , better than what I had in Chicago," he added.
"I will be carrying along my training partner Simon Kirwa as my pace .
