Eliud Kipchoge finishes sixth at Boston Marathon in his slowest ever time, Evans Chebet defends title
Eliud Kipchoge finished sixth at the 2023 Boston Marathon in 2:09:23, his slowest ever marathon and his poorest showing since he finished eighth at the 2020 London Marathon. The 38-year-old was unable to keep up with the pace in the rain, with Evans Chebet defending his title in 2:05:54, making him the first man to win back-to-back titles since Robert Kipkoech Cheruiyot won three in a row from 2006-2008. Ad Chebet has won his last three marathons, winning the New York City race in 2022.
