LOS ANGELES—Kenyans John Korir and Delvine Meringor won the 37th edition of the Los Angeles Marathon on March 20, with Meringor winning an added $10,000 bonus for beating Korir to the finish line.

The women’s elite field started approximately 18 minutes before the men’s, based on the expected men’s and women’s winning times, which organizers correctly predicted would put the top female and male runners within seconds of each other heading into the final mile.
