Daniel Romanchuk seized his first AbbottWMM win in Chicago last fall and he has been invincible ever since.
Name: Daniel Romanchuk
Country of Origin: U.S.A.
Standout Race:
He finished 2018 by becoming the first American male and the youngest athlete to win the wheelchair competition at the TCS New York City Marathon, and he welcomed 2019 with a runner-up finish in Tokyo and a pair of crowns at both the Boston and London marathons. His Boston win came with an added bonus: a new PR, 1:21:36. The London Marathon also doubled as the World Para-athletics Marathon Championships so Romanchuk added “marathon world champion” to his long list of accomplishments.
