"The people of New York (are) amazing," said Tola, who hoisted his arms aloft as he claimed his first World Marathon Major title after taking third in London earlier this year. Obiri produced an extraordinary final kick in the women's race to outlast Ethiopian Letesenbet Gidey, who crossed the finish line about six seconds behind, as last year's winner, Kenyan Sharon Lokedi, finished third in 2:27:33. Swiss Marcel Hug broke the tape in 1:25:29 in the men’s wheelchair race, picking up a record-extending sixth title in New York, while his compatriot, Catherine Debrunner, won the women's race in 1:39:32. The race capped a blockbuster year for the World Marathon Majors in which both the men’s and women’s world records were obliterated. Kenyan Kelvin Kiptum beat compatriot Eliud Kipchoge's world record mark in Chicago last month, while Ethiopian Tigst Assefa shattered the women's record in Berlin in September.

[1/2] Athletics – 2022 TCS New York City Marathon - New York, United States - November 6, 2022 Kenya's Evans Chebet in action during the elite men's race REUTERS/Jeenah MoonNEW YORK, Nov 6 (Reuters) - Kenyans Evans Chebet and Sharon Lokedi survived brutal heat and humidity to win the New York City Marathons on Sunday after Brazilian Daniel Do Nascimento collapsed during the race. His win completes a Kenyan sweep of the six men's world marathon majors in 2022. "I'm out of words, I'm really excited," said Lokedi, the eighth competitor to win the New York race in a marathon debut. The year's final marathon major was back at full capacity for the first time since the COVID-19 pandemic, with some 50,000 competitors hitting the streets and thousands of people congregating along the course to cheer. American Susannah Scaroni produced the fastest-ever time through the five boroughs on the women's side, winning her second wheelchair major in 1:42:43.
[1/2] Athletics - TCS New York City Marathon - New York, United States - November 7, 2021 People react at the finish line. REUTERS/Carlo AllegriNEW YORK, Oct 26 (Reuters) - The New York City Marathon is embracing livestreaming in a fight to create a new generation of athletics fans this year, becoming the first marathon major to broadcast the race live on its mobile app, organisers said on Wednesday. The marathon on Nov. 6 will already be broadcast to some 530 million homes worldwide but organisers hope the livestream will reach existing fans abroad without access to a traditional telecast. "So if you have content and you have valuable content, you have to migrate where the audience is." For Des Linden, a two-time Olympian who won the Boston Marathon in 2018, the appeal of livestreaming in athletics is simple.
