2011 Boston Marathon

Yesterday was the Boston Marathon and history was made by Kenya's Mutai.  He ran a time of 2 hours, 3 minutes and 2 seconds (2:03.02) which would have been a new world record but due to a strong tailwind and a downward course Mutai's run will not qualify him for the fastest time ever.  Even so this is impressive and monumental for the sport.

Below is a picture of Mutai crossing the finishing line and Ryan Hall, first American runner to finish, who finished 4th overall.
