James Milner's New York Marathon Time at 40 and How It Compares to the Pros
The retired footballer ran for the James Milner Foundation and said he used artificial intelligence to guide his training.
- James Milner, 40, completed the New York City Marathon on Sunday in 3:09:04, finishing his first world major marathon just months after retiring from professional football.
- Renowned throughout his 24-year career for exceptional fitness, Milner played for Liverpool and Manchester City before transitioning to endurance running to maintain structure after retirement.
- Running for the James Milner Foundation, which raised over £1.3 million for charities, Milner trained using an AI program and completed a long run of just over 32 kilometers.
- Adjusting to life after sports, Milner noted training provided necessary structure. "I'd find it hard to not have a goal to train for," the former England international said.
- Whether the 40-year-old pursues additional marathons or shifts to triathlons remains uncertain; Milner emphasized maintaining physical fitness as a lifelong priority moving forward.
