I know we all get excited to watch running events on television, but some people do actually watch the Boston Marathon because it is probably the most popular marathon each year. So as we watched the conclusion of the 114th Boston Marathon today we were shocked to see a Kenyan (Robert Kiprono Cheruiyot) win the men’s race and an Ethiopian (Tebya Erkesson) won the women’s race. Some miracles never cease.

Kenya’s Robert Kiprono Cheruiyot won the 114th Boston Marathon on Monday, breaking the course record with a time of 2 hours, 5 minutes, 52 seconds. Ethiopia’s Teyba Erkesso took home the women’s title.

an Ethiopian won the Mens and Womens divisions of the Boston Marathon. Now we aren’t 100% positive if this is the first time this has happened or not, but it does seem odd.
