77-year-old runner wins Sydney Marathon division by insane margin
September 2, 2025
Sunday’s Sydney Marathon marked seven-for-seven for American masters superstar Jeannie Rice. The 77-year-old crossed the finish line in an impressive 3:37:48 during the event’s first year as an Abbott World Marathon Major, completing all seven marathon majors and winning her W75-79 category by a astonishing one hour and 21 minutes.
Remarkably, she also outpaced all the men in her age bracket, with the top male finisher clocking 4:00:52–giving her a lead of more than 22 minutes. That’s faster than 5:10/km (or 8:19/mile pace) over 42.2K. Running Magazine
