It's the first time the country has swept the men's and women's titles in this historic event, the world's oldest annual marathon. Hayle won the elite men's division in an unofficial time of 2:12:45, completing a podium sweep by three men's runners from Ethiopia. He pulled away late from the 2015 champion, Lelisa Desisa, with a little more than a mile to go. Desisa finished second in a time of 2:13:32. Yemane Adhane Tsegay finished third in 2:14:02. "Very difficult," Hayle said through a translator to CNN affiliate WBZ after he won the race.
