The Valencia Marathon has a new champion: the Kenyan Sabastian Sawewho was making his debut in the event, was the first to cross the finish line in the forty-fourth edition of the competition in 02:02:05which has not helped him break the world record and take home the million-dollar reward promised by the president of Mercadona, Juan Roig.
Despite the fact that he has been barely two minutes away from beating the mark of Eliud Kipchoge, who ran the Chicago Marathon in 2:00:35 last year, which would have made him pocket the million euros that Roig promised to whoever beat the world record in Valencia, Sawe has achieved the best world time of 2024.
Until now a specialist in the Half Marathon, a distance in which he had great successes, the 28-year-old athlete won in a race dedicated to honor the victims of DANA which a month ago devastated several regions of Valencia.
