Marie-Véronique Antoinette Colette Jeannine Marot (born 16 September 1955)[1] is a French-born British marathon runner.
Then in April, she won the 1989 London Marathon in 2.25.56, regaining the British record from Priscilla Welch, who had run 2:26:51 in 1987.
Marot's time stood as the British record for 13 years until it was broken by Paula Radcliffe in 2002.
Marot won the Houston Marathon for the third time in 1991, running 2:30:55, before failing to finish at the 1991 World Championships in Tokyo.
Marot (as of 2022) ranks fifth on the UK all-time list behind Radcliffe, Jess Piasecki, Mara Yamauchi and Charlotte Purdue.
