BOSTON, United States, April 15 (Xinhua) -- Ethiopian Worknesh Degefa, 28, eased to win the 123rd Boston Marathon women's race in two hours 23 minutes and 31 seconds, leading alone about 36 kilometers.

Degefa, who became the fourth-fastest female marathoner in Dubai on January 25, stunned the spectators by going off on her own in the sixth kilometer and prevailed by 42 seconds over 2017 Boston champion Edna Kiplagat from Kenya who finished second.

American Jordan Hasay finished third in 2:25:20.

Though 39-year-old Kiplagat closed in the final kilometers, Degefa was able to celebrate down Boylston Street.

"My husband and coach said you have good speed when you feel comfortable, just go," Degefa said after the race.

The race began today in a damp, chilly weather with light rain. Enditem
