Great result for the guy who placed 12th in the Olympic marathon in 2021. He’s improving from year to year. He only became a full-time runner this past year and up till then was working 35 to 40 hours a week in a sports store repairing bicycles and skis. He’s now faster than Yuki Kawauchi, his idol.

In France? No. They actually prosecute dopers in that country.

There were many national records set in this race:
4. G.Ayale Israel 2:05:33 (previous 2:06:56, Teferi 2022 also in Sevilla)
11. C.Pacheco Peru 2:07:38 (previous 2:09:31 by Pacheco in 2019)
13. H.Garibay Flores 2:07:44 (previous 2:11:58 by Flores in 2021)
26. C.Del Rio Chile 2:10:26 (previous 2:12:19 by O.Aguilar in 1988, Rotterdam)
32. C.Zamora Uruguay 2:11:02 (previous 2:11:42 by N.Cuestas in 2020, Valencia)
I also thought that the record of Moldavia was achieved with Maxim Raileanu running 2:11:12 (34th), until I checked and found out that the record for Moldavia was in fact a stunning 2:08:32 by Jaroslav Mushinschi achieved in Düsseldorf Germany in 2010! Pre Super Shoes.
In my view the super shoes are a real game changer in the world of road racing. Guys like Bill Rodgers and Frank Shorter would have ran around 204 or 205 in my opinion had they been wearing super shoes in their era.

Such steady progression and a true "freak".. he's about 5'01 tall.. super compact athlete, doesn't look like a natural runner.

And Americans still get excited about guys running 2:12

And 99% of Americans refuse to go out of the country to race on fast courses, even though they are legit unlike CIM and Grandmas.

Addendum: H.Garibay Flores, Bolivia, 2:07:44 (Nat.Record)
Forgot to mention Garibay's country-Bolivia. 4 minutes improvement!

Former cyclist runs 206? Sounds like a probable doper.
