Here's what you need to know about this year's New York City Marathon, (CNN)After the pandemic scuppered last year's New York City Marathon, one of the world's most prestigious and hotly anticipated running events is set to return on Sunday.

Last year's race was meant to mark an extra special milestone -- it would have been the 50th running of the iconic competition.
But like so many aspects of regular life, the world's largest marathon fell victim to the pandemic in 2020 and was canceled due to health and safety concerns.

This year, runners will face some restrictions to mitigate the risk of Covid-19, including social distancing, elimination of touchpoints, enhanced health and safety protocols and testing and tracing.
Participants will need to provide proof of at least one round of Covid-19 vaccination or a negative Covid-19 test from within 48 hours of race day, and face coverings will be required on public transportation during race day, at the start, at the post-finish area and at the Expo.

Some 33,000 people will attempt the grueling 26.2 miles through the city's five boroughs.
The race starts in Staten Island, where runners will advance north to Brooklyn, Queens, before taking the Queensboro Bridge to Manhattan. Athletes will run down Fifth Avenue before finishing in Central Park.

ESPN2 will show live coverage from 8:30 a.m. ET to 11:30 a.m. ET, and via the ESPN App on smartphones, tablets, and connected streaming devices and ESPN.com on computers for those who have video subscriptions from affiliated pay-TV providers.
The broadcast will also be available live in Spanish on ESPN3 from 8:30 a.m. ET to 11:30 a.m. ET.
International viewers can watch the broadcast from 8:30 a.m. ET to 11:30 a.m. ET through a variety of global broadcast partners.

2021 TCS NYC Marathon Live Updates: Albert Korir takes men's race, Peres Jepchirchir wins women's
NEW YORK (WABC) -- Albert Korir of Kenya won the New York City Marathon men's race, two years after coming in second. Korir overtook Morocco's Mohamed El Aaraby and Italy's Eyob Faniel around the 18th mile and quickly took the drama out of the race's 50th running. He won in an unofficial time of 2 hours, 8 minutes and 22 seconds.

It was Korir's first victory in one of the World Marathon Majors and his first time atop any podium since winning the Ottawa Race Weekend Marathon in 2019.

The 27-year-old Korir finished second to Geoffrey Kamworor in 2019 by 23 seconds.

Korir and fellow Kenyan Kibwott Kandie were side by side as they passed El Aaraby and Faniel, but Kandie - the world record holder in the half marathon - fell off in his marathon debut.

El Aaraby held on for an improbable second-place finish after coming in 11th at the Tokyo Olympics. Faniel was third.

WOMEN'S WINNER
Peres Jepchirchir of Kenya pulled from the pack at the entrance to Central Park and won the New York City Marathon, becoming the first woman to win a marathon major in the fall after winning an Olympic gold medal. Jepchirchir broke away from countrymate Viola Cheptoo and Ethiopia's Ababel Yeshaneh in the final mile of the race after the trio ran side by side from the Bronx back down through Manhattan.

Jepchirchir, 28, took gold at the Tokyo Olympic marathon in August and came back on a short recovery to win a race once dominated by her hero Mary Keitany, a four-time winner in New York who recently retired from the sport.
Peres Jepchirchir became first runner to win Olympic Gold and the NYC Marathon as she captured the pro women's division.

WHEELCHAIR COMPETITION
Marcel Hug won the men's wheelchair division at TCS NYC Marathon by a wide margin. Not a competitor was in sight as he crossed the finish line.

The 35-year-old added yet another prize to a remarkable year that included four gold medals at the Tokyo Paralympics, including in the marathon. He also won the Boston Marathon last month.

Hug, born with spina bifida, finished second to American Daniel Romanchuk in 2018 and '19. The latter defeat came by just one second.

Hug finished Sunday in 1 hour, 31 minutes and 24 seconds, more than 6 1/2 minutes ahead of Britain's David Weir in second and Romanchuck in third.

Madison de Rozario of Australia has won the New York City Marathon women's wheelchair race, holding off past champions Tatyana McFadden and Manuela Schr for her first Big Apple victory.

The 27-year-old took gold over Schr at this year's Tokyo Paralympic Marathon by just one second, but she blew away the field Sunday, winning by nearly three minutes at 1 hour, 51 minutes and 1 second. McFadden was second and Schr was third.

The second oldest of the world's marathon majors ran its 50th edition Sunday after canceling in 2020 due to the coronavirus pandemic. The field was cut by about 40% to around 30,000 runners, with efforts made to maintain distance between competitors near the start and finish lines.
