Rabat - Morocco national championship

I was 7th, the 1st Moroccan, and becamethe Morocco national half marathon champion

I just finished my race.  I ran the Rabat international half marathon and I finished 7th place in 1:02:35.

I finished as the 1st Moroccan. Because this race is international and the Morocco national championship, I am the 2013 Morocco half marathon champion!
