1 MebKeflezighi curtain call from MebKeflezighi, Eritrea, East Africa. This Boston Marathon is his fifth and last trip to Boston Marathon. In 20 14, Meb won the Boston Marathon in 2:08'37', becoming the American runner who won the championship again after 1983 and the oldest Boston horse champion since 1930. Although he won the championship trophy, Meb could never return to the top due to years of injury accumulation. In the Boston Marathon which ended on 4/ 17, Meb finally finished the race at 2: 17: 00 and won 13. After reaching the finish line, Meb bowed to the audience behind the arch, representing his perfect curtain call. After the race, Meb walked to the side of the finish line. A lady stretched out her arm from the stands. I squeezed her hand and kissed her. And this lady is the mother of Martin Richard, an 8-year-old boy who was killed in the 20 13 Boston horse bombing.

? Wbur 3 barefoot runner John Lei Ensi, who is famous for his barefoot Neanderthal name on Tiwtter, has been participating in the marathon as a primitive man. In the Boston Marathon, he only wore a leather skirt and a bone necklace around his neck. He had no sun hat, no shelter, no pressure equipment and no running shoes, but he completed the Boston Marathon in 3 hours and 40 seconds, and his strength was quite strong. After crossing the finish line, I happily punched each other with my partner who finished the race together.

In the first and second innings, Kirui failed to get the cup. In the third time, as Kirui's hand reached out, the volunteer's hand was released and the cup just fell into Kirui's hand. Even so, Kirui's speed has not been affected at all, but the volunteers behind him are hugging, excited and happy.

As soon as they were satisfied with the male runner's eyes, they were already tired and immediately recovered.

? ITTER_BostonMagazine Every year, the Boston Marathon has a different story. For example, this year, the patriots of the football team arrived at the Super Bowl again, and they also staged an epic reversal and won the fifth Super Bowl trophy. The Celtics, the basketball team, won the first place in the East with 53 wins and entered the playoffs. The hockey team, the Bruins, defeated the Senate team, which had not won for two years, in the first game of the playoffs. As Captain Sanchez of the United States Marine Corps said, there is no excuse. As long as you have the heart, everyone can achieve their goals.
