To calculate the time it takes for the runner to complete the marathon distance of 42 kilometers at a constant speed of 4.67 kilometers per hour, we can use the formula:

\[
\text{Time} = \frac{\text{Distance}}{\text{Speed}}
\]

Substituting the values:

\[
\text{Time} = \frac{42 \text{ km}}{4.67 \text{ km/h}}
\]

Now, performing the division:

\[
\text{Time} = 9.0 \text{ hours}
\]

Therefore, it takes the runner approximately 9.0 hours to finish the marathon.
