There Is A New World Record Marathon Time

Patrick Makau is one fast man. In less time than it takes to watch the movie 'Titanic" or "Godfather," he ran 26.2 miles in 2:03:38! To be exact, he could have run TWO marathons in the amount of time it takes to watch those movie. He set a new record. The previous time was 2:03:59 set by Haile Gebrselassie. To put that time into perspective, here are some 26.2 mile routes you can take in Western New York. Just imagine running to these places in just over 2hours!

Downtown Buffalo to Holland

Cheektowaga to Batavia

Niagara Falls to Main and Transit
