Here is a breakdown of the 15 best race moments of the year.
From shocking upsets in NCAA cross country to history-making performances in the marathon, 2019 saw many unprecedented achievements on the amateur and professional racing circuit. In 2003, Paula Radcliffe set the world record with a career best of 2:15:25 at the London Marathon. For 16 years, the closest any runner came to Radcliffe’s mark was 2:17:01, a career best run by Mary Keitany in 2017..
“It’s amazing for me,” Kosgei said after the race. “I never believed that time. But I’ve seen 2:10 is possible for a lady to run if they are sure. During training, you must focus everything.”
