The 24-year-old ran 2:06:12 to get the victory!
The race was one of attrition in challenging conditions—72 degrees with 70 percent humidity, and winds of 13 to 15 miles per hour. During the first half, Rupp occasionally drifted off the front pack, more to conserve energy for the second half than because he couldn’t stick with the pace up front.
Tamru had a 15-second lead at 15K. Tura and Kenyan Reuben Kipyego, the only sub-2:04 marathoner in the field, led the charge to gradually chase him down. They caught Tamru just before halfway, reached in 1:02:40, Rupp was 10 seconds back. Tura began to push at 1:35 into the race. Surprisingly, fastest-in-the-field Kipyego was dropped immediately. By 35K, the eventual top three were the only ones left up front, thanks to covering that 5K stretch at 2:06 marathon pace.
