On this episode, Chris and guest host Ben Felton recapped the women's and men's NYC Marathon elite field races!

On the women's side, we saw a legendary duel between rivals Sharon Lokedi and Hellen Obiri through Central Park - where Hellen came out on top with a quick last couple kilometers! She not only won the race, but set the course record and was the first woman under 2:20 in NYC Marathon history.

American Fiona O'Keeffe ran a great race, putting herself in it in the late stages of the race to finish 4th overall and top American.

On the men's side, we saw an epic battle between Benson Kipruto and Alexander Mutiso, where Mutiso nearly caught Kipruto at the line to steal the race! Kipruto ended up hanging on to win in 2:08.

Brit Patrick Dever had an outstanding performance in 4th, while surprise American Joel Reichow got top American honors in 6th in 2:09. A couple other notable Americans we chatted about were Charles Hicks in 7th and Joe Klecker in 10th!

At the beginning of the episode we also gave some training updates for ourselves (Chris is trying to get Ben to run Houston Marathon with him).

Enjoy!
