Jung Dae-eun has won two consecutive tournaments since last year.
Jung Dae-eun "I didn't train until July this year due to injuries, but I prepared hard to show a good performance in the second half of the year. I'm very happy to have a good result of two consecutive losses. "I won, but I'm disappointed in terms of the record. I will try harder to break my personal record in the future."
The second place in the women's category was Oh Dal-nim (Danyang County Office) with a time of 2:44:39, and Lim Kyung-hee (Samchuk City Hall) with a time of 2:44:53.
In the men's elite category, Jeon Soo-hwan (26, Chungnam Provincial Office) won the top prize. Jeon Soo-hwan, who led from the 34km point, crossed the finish line first with a time of 2:22:39. Jeon Soo-hwan said, `I'm happy to win, but today's record was the worst in seven full courses"I'm ashamed of the fact that the record difference between the general winner and the general winner is not large." His best record is 2:15:59, and he said, `I will work hard and challenge the record in the 2 hours, 10 to 12 minutes range.'
Shin Hyun-soo (Korea Electric Power Corp.) came in second at 2:24:26 and Lee Juni (Jindo County Office) ran at 2:38:33 in third place.
