Results

Benson Kipruto of Kenya won the men's race with a time of 2:08:09. The finish was the closest in race history, with compatriot Alexander Mutiso finishing second in the same official time, separated by just three-hundredths of a second (0.03s). American Joel Reichow was the top U.S. finisher, placing sixth in 2:09:56. Olympic champion Eliud Kipchoge finished 17th in 2:14:36, earning his Abbott World Marathon Majors Six Star medal.[1][2]

Albert Korir originally completed a Kenyan podium sweep, finishing third in 2:08:57. Korir was banned by the Athletics Integrity Unit in 2026 for testing positive for CERA, a banned performance-enhancing drug. His results from October 3, 2025 were disqualified.[3] Patrick Dever of the United Kingdom was upgraded to third.[4]

Hellen Obiri of Kenya won the women's race with a time of 2:19:51, shattering the 22-year-old course record of 2:22:31 set by Margaret Okayo in 2003. Obiri became a two-time champion, having previously won in 2023. Compatriots Sharon Lokedi (2022 champion) and Sheila Chepkirui (2024 champion) finished second and third, respectively, with all three Kenyans finishing under the previous course record. Fiona O'Keeffe was the top American woman, placing fourth in 2:22:49, marking the fastest ever American women's time in New York City.[5][1]

In the wheelchair divisions, Marcel Hug of Switzerland continued his dominance, winning a record-extending seventh New York title in 1:30:16. Susannah Scaroni of the United States successfully defended her women's title with a time of 1:42:10, claiming her third New York title.[1]
