Order These Marathon World Record Times from Fastest to Slowest

Arrange these marathon world record performances - Or notable marathon benchmark times - In the correct order from the fastest finishing time to the slowest. The marathon is one of athletics' most demanding events, covering 42.195 kilometers and testing both speed and endurance. The men's marathon world record has been shattered multiple times in recent years, driven by the development of carbon fiber racing shoes, improved training methodologies, and the organized pacemaking in elite road races. Eliud Kipchoge of Kenya has dominated marathon running for over a decade and was the first human to run a sub-two-hour marathon (in a special time trial in Vienna in 2019). Ordering marathon times from fastest to slowest tests both your athletics knowledge and your ability to compare times quickly and accurately.
