If you ran 2:59:59 on the dot, it would have placed you in 5,200th out of 28,000 finishers. In comparison, the same time at the 2024 Toronto Waterfront Marathon would have placed you 293rd overall&#8211;and 2,660th at the 2024 Boston Marathon, which shows Valencia&#8217;s incredible depth.<\/p>\n<p>Although the race saw a record number of sub-three finishers, only 512 runners went under two hours and 30 minutes, with 126 from France. This number was slightly lower than the 560 runners who achieved the mark in 2023.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"wp-embedded-content\" data-secret=\"zK4Do0CZFI\"><p><a href=\"https:\/\/runningmagazine.ca\/sections\/runs-races\/valencia-marathon-to-proceed-despite-severe-flooding-in-the-region\/\">Valencia Marathon to proceed despite severe flooding<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><iframe class=\"wp-embedded-content lazyload\" sandbox=\"allow-scripts\" security=\"restricted\" style=\"position: absolute; visibility: hidden;\" title=\"&#8220;Valencia Marathon to proceed despite severe flooding&#8221; &#8212; Canadian Running Magazine\" data-src=\"https:\/\/runningmagazine.ca\/sections\/runs-races\/valencia-marathon-to-proceed-despite-severe-flooding-in-the-region\/embed\/#?secret=gP7kwkIB5J#?secret=zK4Do0CZFI\" data-secret=\"zK4Do0CZFI\" width=\"600\" height=\"338\" frameborder=\"0\" marginwidth=\"0\" marginheight=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" data-load-mode=\"1\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>Of the 28,000+ finishers, just over 6,100 were women, making up only 21 per cent of the 2024 field.
