Great Weather Expected for 2025 New York City Marathon
November 01, 2025
Good debut from the 2022 ncaa xc champ, ran smart and ran well to the end. He will be elgible to run for USA in the 2028 LA Olympics, so interested to see if he can progress into one of America's best marathoners. Glad he made the move to the 'thon early.
Mantz debuted in 7th place and 2:08 at chicago (faster course) at 25 years old. Hicks is 24.
I’m shocked this isn’t getting more attention. Probably because it’s a NYC marathon time but what’s this convert to on a Chicago course? He’s gotta be a top 5 favorite to make the team come 28.
Agreed, this is a fantastic result. 7th place in a WMM debut (albeit in a slightly watered-down field) at just 24 is very promising. Although I don’t see him running as fast as Mantz in the future, I bet he will have similar international results in terms of placement. I bet he’ll podium in Boston or NYC one day.
This is the story of the race. Nice run.

Yes it seems Mantz is the comp. Great start to his roads career. He could theoretically rep USA at the World Road Running Champs it seems and the timing is fine for the domestic fall ones (best for NYC). Ideally we get Mantz/Hicks and maybe Bor for that team (I think you get 3 or 4?)
