Ethiopia's Tamirat Tola Sets New York City Marathon Men's Course Record; Kenya's Hellen Obiri Wins Women's Race
Obiri clinches her win with a final burst of speed, her finish time at 2 hours 27 minutes 23 seconds, while Tola's course record of 2:04:58 quashes concerns about his fitness after he withdrew from the world championships in Budapest this summer. Tola and Debrunner also secure additional bonuses of $50,000 each for beating the previous course records.
