Floyd Patterson (Wikipedia)

Wikipedia cites the official NYRR result (results.nyrr.org/runner/9765/result/831023), which loads by script, so Wikipedia is the checked page. 3:35:27 = 12,927 s. He also ran the Stockholm Marathon in 1982 and 1983 with Ingemar Johansson; the 1983 time is its own record, no 1982 time found.
