  Ten thousand runners from 88 countries took part in the 23rd Volkswagen Prague Marathon on Sunday, May 7th, 2017. Valary Aiyabei from Kenya won the women's title and broke the female course record with her time of 2:21:57 which was 37 seconds faster than the previous track record set by fellow Kenyan Lydia Cheromei, in 2011. Run Czech Running League President Mr. Carlo Capalbo showed excitement by commenting, "Valary’s performance today has improved the women’s event record which nobody has managed to beat in six years. I’m delighted we’ve been able to prove that Prague can produce fast times.”
  
  In the men's category, Ethiopian runner Gebretsadik Abraha took the win with 2:08:47, followed by fellow Ethiopians Bazu Worku (2:08:48) and Mekuant Ayenew (2:09:00).
