Mary Adah Akor Beasley (born September 24, 1976) is a Nigerian–American athlete who competed for the US at the 2005 and 2007 World Marathon Championships.[1] In 2006, she was ranked the seventh fastest U.S. woman marathoner of the year; in 2007, the sixth.[2] She runs (and often wins) multifarious marathons around the United States, Mexico and Africa. After running the Gobernador Marathon in Mexicali, Mexico, in December 2012, she was found to be using a banned substance.[3] She accepted her sanction and returned to competition in 2015.
She is the women's national record-holder in the marathon distance for Nigeria.[4]
