Kenenisa Vs Eipchoge (BBC)
The 38th edition of the London marathon was a highly anticipat-
ed competition of the year. Two of the greatest distance runners
in history and the two fastest men in the marathon distance race,
were planned to go head to head in April. However, it has been
postponed from April to October 4 due to the COVID-19 out-
break. Including Kenenisa and Kipchoge, the elite men’s race

includes eight athletes who have run 2:05 in marathon races.
In an interview with MBC Egypt 2 TV, El Sebaei said: “The
Nile provides 97 percent of Egyptian water resources,” not-
ing that Egypt is seeking to carry out projects to improve
managing the water resources.
Providing new equipment to help decrease household water
consumption is part of the planned projects.
The GERD’s construction is expected to finish by 2023 and
the hydroelectric dam will produce 6,475 megawatts for
Ethiopia’s domestic and industrial use, as well as for export
to neighboring countries.
