Coming in with a blazing time of 2:58.20, first time marathon runner Stephen Kibbee was the first finisher in the 43rd Guam Marathon early Sunday morning. Runners started at UOG in Mangilao and traveled all the way to the Nimitz Beach Park in Agat.
“I’m blessed. Everything I was able to accomplish today was thanks to God and I couldn’t do it without my wife, who was there for me every mile,” said Kibbee. Melanie Kibbee, Stephen’s wife, was waiting for her husband at the finish line.
Kibbee had never run a marathon before, let a lone a half marathon.
“Most of my running was done alone, so I pretty much ran the race alone in the dark. Each week I tried to do a 17-18 mile run and just get used to how I feel when it starts to hurt. In high school I was a runner, but Guam has been really amazing and all the 5K’s, especially the SDA 5K, made me come out to do more 5K’s and then I started to want to do longer runs.”
Rounding out the top three runners for the males were Ryan Matienzo who game in at 3:07.39 and Rodney Bordallo at 3:24.20.
Coming in 4ht overall, and first amongst females was the iconic Marie Benito with a solid time of 3:26.42.

“First I would like to thank the good Lord, he’s blessed me. It’s a love and passion for the distance. I’m not as quick as I used to be in the short distance, but I really enjoy running long distances and it’s a beautiful course,” said Benito.
With all the miles logged on in her prolific time as a runner, Benito plans to keep going strong until her body tells her otherwise.
“I’m going to keep running as I listen to my body and make sure I recover. Just being out here and seeing the spirit of everybody who feels the pain and passion, it’s incentive for me.”
Top Three Males:
Stephen Kibbee 2:58.20
Ryan Matienzo 3:0739
