Thierry Guibault, the Cognac marathoner who conquered New York

Fail twice in a row? Inconceivable for Thierry Guibault. After having finished first French in the New York marathon in 2015, he participates again in 2019 and wins the event in his age category, in Master 2. On November 7, the athlete will put his title back on the line at the next edition. “I will have to prepare myself hard, that I gauge myself in order to be ready”, estimates the Charentais, who has just won a new title of French M2 half-marathon champion in Sables-d’Olonne, Sunday 19 September.
