The first women’s marathon runner to cross the finish line at the 2023 Anchorage Mayor’s Marathon today was Alaska’s own Mariah Burroughs, who ran away from the pack for a decisive win.
Runners pass by a pond at Point Woronzof during the Mayor’s Marathon in Anchorage, AK on Saturday, June 17, 2023. 95 won the marathon.
She tried be conservative from miles 11 to 18 when there was “a little bit more elevation gain and terrain on the trails,” but once she turned left onto Tudor Road, she started picking up her pace. While this is her first time participating in the Mayor’s Marathon, it was her fourth time running a marathon since she started competing in the races in 2020. Her most notable finish was in the Boston Marathon two months ago. She and her sister both ran, with Mariah finishing the race in 3:15:52.“It was amazing and one of the most incredible experiences I’ve ever had,” Burroughs said.
“I was more of a 5K and steeplechase runner in track, 6Ks in cross country, and decided to get into marathons after college,” Burroughs said. “I had to learn how to love running again after college and I think that’s what got me into marathons.”
