In both the men’s and women’s races, the reigning champions will be looking to defend their crowns. Hellen Obiri picked up bronze in Paris, despite having an injury-disrupted build-up. The Kenyan is one of the great female athletes and can reinforce that on the streets of the Big Apple. Can anyone stop Tamirat Tola in the men’s race? He won it in 2:04:58 last year and then got gold at Paris. He is, unsurprisingly, the favourite once again.
There though a host of other athletes to look out for. In the men’s race Olympic silver medallist Bashir Abdi and Kenyan duo Evans Chebet and Albert Korir are undoubtedly in contention. Obiri’s biggest threat likely comes from Sharon Lokedi, who won this race on her marathon debut in 2022.
