"Winning today means a lot to me," Chepkirui said. "It means my training went really well. The last turn was really tough, but I was able to push through it."
Chepkiuri finished the race running a very consistent 5:30 mile in the back half of the race, and her consistency helped lead her to the first major marathon victory of her career.
New York is a bit challenging," Chepkiuri said. "It's uphill and downhill, not like London or Berlin. Here, it's not about time. It's about winning."
