Nageeye, the Tokyo Olympic silver medalist, edged Kenyan Evans Chebet, 2:07:39 to 2:07:45, to become the first Dutch runner to win New York City. Nageeye, 35, finished fourth, third and fifth in the last three New York City Marathons.

Sheila Chepkirui took the tape Sunday morning in the women’s New York City Marathon, and she did it in the most stunning of fashions: outkicking Hellen Obiri and slamming the door on Obiri’s legendary past two years.

Nageeye had run the New York race three times before, with his previous best finish being third in 2022. The winner that year was Kenya's Evans Chebet, and Chebet almost secured another victory this weekend as he and Nageeye were battling it out heading into Central Park.
