It was hard to miss Mark Aaron Polger, Alexi Pappas and Masashi Kondo at the New York City Marathon on Sunday. With energy gels and bodega coffees in hand, the crowd made its way to Fort Wadsworth, where thousands of runners congregate each year before running the New York City Marathon. Speed demons wearing Nike Vaporflys and short-shorts mingled with casual runners wearing “Monsters, Inc.” onesies. That’s the record I’m going for. Running is therapeutic, even though I’m going to be running really, really slowly.

On Sunday, Levins will tackle his first New York City Marathon as one of the favorites. He often runs 170 to 180 miles a week, which, at the top end of that range, averages out to nearly 26 miles a day. Three to four times a week, he runs three times a day — once in the morning, once in the afternoon and once at night, almost always on his own. Jim Finlayson, his coach, said it took a “unique mind-set” to train that way. “The fact that Cam can not only handle the mileage physically but handle it psychologically,” Finlayson said.

The top runners in the New York City Marathon’s nonbinary division won cash prizes Sunday, a first for a World Marathon Majors race. Instead, it reported, the nonprofit New York Road Runners awarded the monetary prizes to the top nonbinary finishers. Last year, the NYC Marathon recognized its first nonbinary division winner, Zackary Harris, but the division did not receive a monetary prize. Harris came in second place in the nonbinary division this year, with a time of 3:09:41. Of the six World Marathon Majors races, five of them — New York, Boston, Chicago, London and Berlin — have recently added a nonbinary category.

Eliud Kipchoge of Kenya crosses the finish line to win the men's category race in the Tokyo Marathon 2021 in Tokyo, Japan March 6, 2022. Kipchoge, a four-times winner in London, clocked two hours, 01.09 seconds to take half a minute off his own record set on the same Berlin course four years ago. Returning to London he will present medals to thousands of youngsters racing parts of the course on Saturday, finishing under the famous gantry on The Mall. Briton Mo Farah, now 39, won the Mini Marathon three times and will be the man the locals want to see on Sunday. Brasher said that he was planning for London Marathon to accommodate 50,000 runners, up from the current total of around 40,000, probably from 2024, with a long view to matching that with 50,000 in the Mini Marathon to mark the race's 50th Anniversary in 2031.
