2019 Boston Marathon Results

The rain held up (mostly) during the 2019 Boston Marathon, and the results for the elite runners ended up being a tale of two races. On the women's side,Worknesh Degefa of Ethiopia ran away with it, quite literally, at one point maintaining a lead of three minutes over the nearest competitor at one point before eventually winning in 2:23:31, beating second-place Edna Kiplagat of Kenya by more than 40 seconds. Jordan Hasay of the U.S. finished on the podium in 2:25.20, and last year's winner, Des Linden, took fifth in 2:27:00.

It was the opposite story for the men, where Lawrence Cherono of Kenya narrowly edged second-place Lelisa Desisa at the tape, winning in 2:07:57 to Desisa's 2:07:59. But don't feel bad for Desisa; the Ethiopian had won the last two Boston Marathons. American men had a good showing, with Scott Fauble taking seventh place in 2:09:09 and Jared Ward finishing eighth in 2:09:25.

2015 Boston Marathon - Race Results

Congrats to everyone who completed today's B.A.A. Boston Marathon under cool and rainy conditions. Your winners were Lelisa Desisa of Ethiopia on the men's side, running away with a time of 2:09:17, and Kenya's Caroline Rotich, who pulled away from Mare Dibaba near the finish to cross the finish line at 2:24:55.

Desisa's win was his second in three years. He won in the bombing-scarred Boston Marathon of 2013, and showed his classiness by donating his winning medal to the city of Boston as a sign of solidarity.

The top American finishers were Des Linden, who finished fourth overall in the women's race, and Dathan Ritzenhein, who came in seventh in the men's event. This was a great finish for Ritzenhein, who led the race for a while at one point. It was also a good finish for another male American, as last year's overall winner Meb Keflezighi came in behind Ritz in eighth place, despite having to stop to vomit five times.

And in another unforgettable, classy Meb moment, he found himself running next to American Hilary Dionne near the finish, and took her hand and raised it with his as they crossed the finish. (Dionne was the fourth American woman, and 15th woman overall.)
