He earned All-American honors for three straight years in cross-country from 2013 to 2015 and earned similar honors in the 10,000 meter race in track.“Scott’s success surprises nobody,” Portland men’s cross country and track & field head coach Rob Conner said in a press release.

Tatyana McFadden Makes History
Battling 20 to 30 mph headwinds, the world’s most dominant wheelchair athlete took home her fifth Boston Marathon victory in 2:04:39.
The former editor-in-chief of Runner’s World wore the bib number 1968. “He was always the hardest working guy on our team and he has taken it to a new level as a professional. He finished in 4:53:22, a little over two and a half hours shy of his 2:22:17 victory when he was 21.

The first question at the postrace press conference for second-place Sarah Sellers and third place Krista DuChene?
“Can you please introduce yourself?”
Sellers is a 26 year-old nurse who lives in Utah.
Instead, she will take home $40,000.
Sellers earned $75,000. It wasn’t until a volunteer waved him to the right side of the street and he spotted the finishers tape that he realized he was going to top the podium. He dropped from the lead pack around mile three, only to work his way back with roughly six miles to go. Before today, he was most known for his prodigious racing schedule (he’s finished more than 70 marathons in under 2:20) and his world record for the fastest half marathon completed in a suit.
“It was just a surreal experience to be leading a race I grew up watching on TV — not even just growing up, I watched it on TV the last four years and kind of idolized the race and the experience.”
Fauble had a stellar career as a runner for the Pilots. Until those words come, I want to say thank you to so many people, but mostly to Boston.
At 8:40 a.m. Linden said that at that point in the race, she intended to drop out and wanted to help Flanagan work back up to the lead pack.
But while the favorites floundered in the brutal weather, Kawauchi thrived. Neither expected to podium at the Boston Marathon. She won the Canadian National Marathon Championships in 2010.
