Eliud Kipchoge won the NN Mission Marathon in his final race before he defends his title at the postponed Tokyo 2020 Olympics.
The Kenyan, 36, clocked two hours, four minutes and 30 seconds in his first outing since his shock defeat at last year's London Marathon.
Compatriot Jonathan Korir was second, two minutes and 10 seconds back, with Eritrea's Goitom Kifle third.
The invitation-only race took place at Twente Airport in the Netherlands.
It was originally due to take place in Hamburg on 11 April, but local Covid-19 restrictions meant it could not be staged in the German city.
