There will be a new champion on the women's side. Kenya's Joyciline Jepkosgei, the 2019 champion, will not participate. She's instead chosen to concentrate on the London Marathon. Geoffrey Kamworor of Kenya won the men's event in a time of 2:08:13 in 2019.
To mark the 50th running of the TCS New York City Marathon, several of the first finishers from the inaugural 1970 race were honored at the Opening Ceremony on Friday and will also be honored at the finish line on Sunday.
