The Medoc Marathon, held on on September 13, 2014, will see 10,000 competitors strive to run 26 miles and sample as many glasses of wine as they can handle. (CNN) -- I'd already run about half the marathon when the next refreshment table came into view. Thirsty and needing to stay charged for the next 13 miles, I elbowed my way through the crowds of runners and grabbed my drink of choice. A nice glass of full-bodied red wine. This is how it rolls at the Marathon du Medoc, an annual festival of wine and running near Bordeaux, France, in which competitors strive to complete 26 miles and almost as many glasses of the local vin.  Now in its 30th edition, the race is something of a legend for marathon runners. Last year I was among 3,300 runners from 53 different nations -- Japan, Canada, Australia -- joining 5,200 competitors from across France.  Sure, there are prestige races in London, New York, and Chicago, but the gustatory element is lacking. Ev...

The challenge was made by the Morogoro Urban Member of Parliament, Abdulaziz Abood, at the Jamhuri Stadium, during the official closing of the 2014 Union Netball League. He said promoting the sport at the grassroots, especially at school level, will help turn around the ailing standard of the sport to its glorious past days. Abood said the existence of the Union League demonstrates how Tanzanians respect and cherish the Union especially during this time when the country continues with the process to come up with a new constitution. The MP also used the opportunity to urge CHANETA and CHANEZA leaders to give Morogoro one more chance to host the tournament next year and he will ensure that there are lots of improvements in comparison to this year. “As...

Mbunge wa Kigoma Kaskazini, Zitto Kabwe ameishauri Serikali isiache nafasi adimu ya kuandaa fainali za Mataifa ya Afrika 2017 (Afcon) baada ya Shirikisho la Soka Tanzania (TFF) kuliomba Shirikisho la Soka Afrika (Caf) kuwa mwenyeji. “Nimeona TFF wametangaza kuwa wanaomba kuandaa Afcon 2017, watu wameipokea kwa mtazamo tofauti. Hii ni nafasi ambayo hatutakiwi kuiacha, nchi yetu haijawahi kushiriki mashindano hayo tangu mwaka 1980,” alisema Zitto. Alisema: “Kuna njia mbili tu za kushiriki mashindano hayo, moja ni kufuzu na nyingine ni kuandaa fainali hizo.”  “Kwa upande wetu tangu mwaka 1980 tumejaribu, lakini tumeshindwa hivyo njia pekee ni kuandaa ili tushiriki. Hivi mnaijua nchi inayoitwa Burkina Faso? Wao waliandaa Afcon mwaka 1998, ni nchi maskini ya kutupwa. Tunachohitaji ni kujenga viwanja tu kwa sababu hoteli nzuri tunazo,” alisema Zitto.  Alisema kama yeye angekuwa, angeunda kamati maalumu ya kuomba zabuni hiyo ili kuhakikisha Tanzania inashinda kw...
