I think the first variant (ExerciseAction → event → SportsEvent) makes more sense, but only because the definition of potentialAction seems to suggest that it’s for, well, potential actions, i.e., actions that could possibly happen at this event (e.g., things you can do), and not for actions that actually happened.



For explicitly denoting that this action already happened, you could add the actionStatus property:

<link itemprop="actionStatus" href="http://schema.org/CompletedActionStatus" />


Instead of the event property, you could use the sportsEvent property. But you could also use both properties together:

<div itemprop="event sportsEvent" itemscope itemtype="http://schema.org/SportsEvent">
<span itemprop="name">NYC Marathon</span>
</div>
