Until just a few weeks back, Keitany held the Women’s Only Marathon World Record (albeit the new 2024 mark is pending ratification) – a mark she achieved back in 2017. Keitany’s winning spanned over a decade and her haul of 7 Marathon Majors is immense – bettered by only one woman in history! ✊
Now officially retired (since 2021), we celebrate @marykeitany as the Women’s Marathon no.5 ALL-TIME!!! 🙌
