As every beginning of November, last 3, one of the most mediatic marathons of the emblematic running circuit World Marathon Majors returned. We are talking, of course, about the New York Marathon 2024, the last event of the year of this great circuit, which has left us Abid Nageeye (Nike Alphafly 3) and Sheila Chepkirui (adidas Adizero Adios Pro 4) as winners in the men's and women's categories respectively. A marathon that celebrated its 53rd edition and that stained the streets of the Big Apple with running.
A new edition of the New York Marathon 2024 brought together more than 50,000 runners from all over the world to celebrate a day of celebration in which the Dutch Abid Nageeye and the Kenyan Sheila Chepkirui, were undoubtedly the big winners of the day. Without being the fastest marathon on the scene, a privilege held by the Chicago Marathon since last year with the stratospheric time of 2:00:35 of the sadly deceased Kiptum, it was a very fast race, which ended in a sprint in both categories with a mark of 2:24:35 by Sheila and 2:07:45 in the case of Nageeye.
As we said, the second places in both categories were almost neck and neck until the meta line, leaving Evans Chebet and Hellen Obiri, both Kenyan compatriots, just seconds away from victoria. While in the men's category Chebet was only 6 seconds behind the Dutch with a time of 2:07:45, Obiri crossed the meta line about 14 secondslater than Sheila, in 2:24:49. On the other hand, the podiums were completed by Albert Korir in the men's category with a time of 2:08:00 and Vivian Cheruiyot in 2:25:21 for the women's category, a category that stood out for the trio of Kenyan aces who dominated the race from start to finish, taking the podium in its entirety.
This year's New York Marathon we followed from the inside thanks to one of our runners and friends of RUNNEA, Lionel Nattes, who lived in his own flesh the emotions of an event of such magnitude and who left us great images to remember. Images and testimonials that we could follow from our social networks, we are sure you didn't miss it!
