Assefa, Ruth Chepngetich and Peres Jepchirchir all feel this weekend’s race is harder to win than the Paris Games marathon.
World record holder Tigst Assefa hopes to set a new women’s-only best time in the TCS London Marathon on Sunday and believes it will be tougher to win than this year’s Paris Olympics.
Next in Assefa’s sights is success in her maiden London Marathon and the women’s-only record, which is 2:17:01 and was set by Kenyan Mary Keitany at the 2017 event.“I did train very well for Berlin and I have trained well for this one. God will show how good I am on Sunday. All four athletes were asked if victory in Sunday’s 26.2-mile race would be harder than winning the marathon at the Paris Games after London Marathon race director Hugh Brasher suggested that would be the case on Wednesday.
After Kosgei failed to finish last year’s race due to injury, she revealed preparation this time had gone well.
