The Flying Pig Marathon men's winner is Sunbury, Ohio, native Zach Kreft.
With an unofficial time of 2:17:49, Kreft sets a new Flying Pig Marathon record. The previous record was set by Cecil Franke in 2006 at 2:20:25.
Kreft, 26, was a star runner at Buckeye Valley High School, where he won four state championships across cross country and track. He went on to run cross country for the University of Notre Dame, where he was a part of several Atlantic Coast Conference championship teams.
The 2026 Flying Pig marks Kreft's third marathon win. After winning the Columbus Marathon in 2023, he also won the Cleveland Marathon in 2025.
The Enquirer will update this story.
