Overview
- Candela Cerrone, 48, won the women’s category of the 15th Stanley Marathon in Puerto Argentino/Stanley with an official time reported around 3:14:30.
- The AIMS‑certified race is run on a hilly, wind‑battered course often 15–20 minutes slower than typical road marathons, and this year’s edition fell on International Women’s Day.
- In the final stretch she cried, “For the fallen, for the veterans, for all who were here,” a moment captured on video that quickly went viral on social media.
- Argentine participants ran without national symbols due to local regulations, heightening the resonance of Cerrone’s spoken dedication.
- Veterans’ organizations publicly thanked her for the gesture, and she remains on the islands with plans to visit Darwin Cemetery and other war sites.
