In the Mount Marathon women’s race, champion Allie McLaughlin smashed the record for fastest time. And in the men’s race, winner Max King shattered the best time for racers in their 40s.

Mount Marathon racers dash down the mountainside during the annual competition in Seward on Monday, July 4, 2022. In the women’s race, rookie Allie McLaughlin from Colorado separated from the field early and held on to smash the women’s record by about 40 seconds. At the top of the grueling climb, the 31-year-old was nearly 2 minutes faster than the record. She slowed slightly on the downhill, but no runners were in sight as she approached the finish line in downtown Seward.

The previous race record was set by Emelie Forsberg of Sweden in 2015. McLaughlin beat her time by 39 seconds.
