I guess we have to wait another year for an American to win Boston. Who is our next great hope? Maybe Ritz?
Nice race by Hall and Meb. Not perfect, but I think Hall would have crashed if he had gone with those early surges.
merga couldn't figure out whether to drop out cause he didn't know if hall was gonna catch him or not.

I'm afraid it's going to be a lot of years if it takes 2:05:51 to win.
Was I seeing things or was Hall celebrating and waving through the final 400m? Why didn't he put that energy into passing Merga?
A big high 5 to my atheist brothers around the globe!
