Some of the best in the world are set to gather in New York in November for one of the most prestigious marathons in the world.

On Tuesday, the New York Road Runner’s Media team released the lineup for the 2023 TCS New York City Marathon that’s set to take place on November 5. The lineup includes 17 Olympians, as well as 11 World Champions.

The women’s race includes stars such as Brigid Kosgei of Kenya and Letesenbet Gidey of Ethiopia. Kellyn Taylor and Molly Huddle headline the American contingent who will compete in the race. 

“I’m really excited to return to the TCS New York City Marathon, my first time back at the race since 2018 and my first marathon anywhere since becoming a mom,” Huddle said in the official press release. “I think the nature of the New York course and the way the race typically unfolds suits me really well this fall, and it will be cool to head back to where my marathon career all started – on the streets of New York.”

In the men’s race, Mosinet Geremew of Kenya, along with Evans Chebet of Kenya headline the field in the men’s race. Elkanah Kibet and Futsum Zienasellassie headline the American’s that are in the decorated field.

I’m a sports journalist based in Florida and I’ve covered a couple of different sports so far early on in my career, but I love the sport of track and field and the art of running. Everyone has a story and everyone has a story worth telling. My prayer is that the stories of the great athletes of this sport are told, and that the sport grows to new creative heights, so that the sport gets the respect it deserves.
