Top results from Osaka International Women's Marathon: japanrunningnews.blogspot.co…
Yada said her 2:19:57 debut marathon was a lot of fun. Really liked getting cheered on by the amateurs in the half marathon over the 1st half. Had figured she'd be happy with 2:23, so sub-2:20 was beyond her expectations. Said training and the race were fun, not hard.

1. Stella Chesang 2:19:31
2. Workenesh Edesa 2:19:54

Osaka Women's International Marathon:
1. Stella Chesang 2:19:31
2. Workenesh Edesa 2:19:54
3. Bedatu Hirpa 2:19:56
4. Mikuni Yada 2:19:57 debut NR, only 2nd-ever sub-2:20 by a Japanese woman inside Japan.
Chesang to the front now. Sub-2:20 is slipping away without some wheels over last 3 km, but Yada will get the debut NR for sure.
Debuting Amisa Murayama/Tohoku Fukushi Univ. also way ahead of 2:26:46 collegiate marathon record pace. Planning to stop at 30k and go for record next year, but she looks completely fine right now. Just passed Mizuki Matsuda.
