MO QUOTE
I’m tired, I feel like I gave it all. It’s just one of those days where it’s what it is.
Once the pacemaker dropped out, it was a little bit of a gap and somehow I just saw the gap getting bigger. I tried to close and I just didn’t have it.
I tried my hardest but that’s what the result was. Can’t take anything from that.

Her 2:18:20 bested Vivian Cheriuyot by nearly 2 minutes.

It is the second-fastest debut by an American woman.
SISSON
For my first one, I thought I did a pretty good job pacing it. Maybe it went a little too fast after halfway, a little too soon, but I mean, it’s my first one, so, I’m learning.
Sisson is now the sixth-fastest American in history.
SISSON
It’s promising I think for my first one to go that well. It’s a good place to be and we have a lot to build off of, there are a lot of things we can improve on in the future. I’m pretty happy because I feel like for 2020 I can maybe look at the marathon and the 10K or either/or, so I feel like I’m in a pretty good place.
Her training partner Molly Huddle finished 12th.
Her 2:26:33 gives her the Olympic standard.
HUDDLE
I felt rough from like 10K on, like my legs were just really achy today.
I thought about dropping out but I wasn’t sure how bad my time would be but then I realized, I’m well within the Trials time so I need to stay in and do my best.
Daniel Romanchuk won the men’s wheelchair race in 1:33:38.
