New York City Marathon live: Latest times, updates and results from Eliud Kipchoge’s farewell race

We reach the leafy edges of Central Park and this is anyone’s race between Chepkiru, Obiri and Lokedi – the three winners of the New York marathon in the past three years. Where will it go?

The men have got through 30km in 1:32:21, and Albert Korir is looking strong at the head of what remains a large leading pack.

Could Margaret Okayo’s 22-year-old record of 2:22:31 be under threat in New York? Chepkiru, Obiri and Lokedi have all won the New York marathon before and they are going to push for a history-making time over the final few kilometers, in perfect conditions.

What a brilliant run this has been from Great Britain’s Patrick Dever – who is right there with the leading pack through the first two-thirds of the New York Marathon.

Albert Korir is looking strong, but I think Eliud Kipchoge may have fallen off the leading pack and is slipping out of contention.

Indeed, Kipchoge is now in the second pack – with Norway’s Moen and the defending champion Nageeye.

As if working together, Chepkiru, Obiri and Lokedi put their foot on the gas to seperate themselves from O’Keefe and Hassan again. Hassan has really dropped off, following a brutal uphill section. Into the final 10km or so.

Never count out Sifan Hassan! The Olympic champion was at one stage 17 seconds off the lead but has reeled in the Kenyan trio, along with the sole American O’Keeffe.

Through 30km in 01:40:11. Heading into the closing stages in Manhattan.

The men are not on course to threaten the New York record – a halfway split of 01:05:18.

It’s an interesting lead group, comprised of also Japan’s Yudai Fukuda and Norway’s Sondre Nordstad Moen as well as Alexnader Mutiso. But it’s still rather sprawling, with Kipchoge still there with Kori and Kipruto.

A key moment in the women’s race as the leaders come off the Queensboro Bridge and cross into Manhattan. Sheila Chepkiru, Hellen Obiri and Sharon Lokedi have broken clear of Fiona O’Keefe, with Sifan Hassan a bit further behind. The Olympic champion is by no means out of this, but the three former winners and Kenyan trio of Chepkiru, Obiri and Lokedi have opened up some room.

So let’s run down the men’s contenders as we approach halfway, with the leading pack through 15km in 46:01.

We have the USA’s Hillary Bor, Kenya’s Benson Kipruto, Albert Korir and Abel Kipchumba, France’s Felix Bour and Great Britain’s Patrick Dever all going strong – but there are many more within touching distance, and we’ve yet to see a breakaway just yet.

Eliud Kipchoge is there too.

The elite women are through halfway in 01:11:01, with a six-strong pack opening up. That includes the last three winners, Sheila Chepkiru, Hellen Obiri and Sharon Lokedi, the Olympic champion Sifan Hassan, and the Americans Fiona O’Keefe and Annie Frisbie.

Susannah Scaroni makes it back-to-back wins at the New York marathon with a dominant win on the streets of the Big Apple, coming home in 1:42:10. The American makes it three wins from four in New York – and improves a magnificent season that has also brought wins in Chicago, Boston and Sydney.

Five-time winner Tatyana McFadden beats Catherine Dubrunner into second.
