boston marathon

Abbee Jeffries completed the Boston Marathon in 3 hours, 36 minutes, and 58 seconds.

When people talk about the triumph of the human spirit, this is exactly what they mean.

This year's edition of the world's oldest annual marathon featured 30,000 runners and a ton of "Boston Strong" banners and T-shirts.

Meb Keflezighi won the Boston Marathon, becoming the first American to do so since 1983. The women's race saw Rita Jeptoo, of Kenya, set a new course record.
