2023 Valencia Marathon
The 2023 Valencia Marathon was an Elite Platinum Label marathon race held in Valencia, Spain on December 3, 2023. It was the 43rd running of the race. There were 20 national records set in this marathon. Kenenisa Bekele, was just over 20 seconds behind the lead group at halfway and appeared to have decided not to go with the strong pace at the front. That proved to be a wise move with the 41-year-old Ethiopian legend passing plenty of slowing runners, including Kandie, to take fourth place in a new Masters world record of 2:04:19.
