Defending champions repeat Boston Marathon wins
BOSTON — Cosmas Ndeti won the Boston Marathon for the third year in a row, and Uta Pippig took the women's race yesterday, the first time both defending champions have repeated.
The Associated Press
Despite running far ahead of their closest challengers, Pippig and Ndiet were unable to beat the course records they set last year.
Ndeti, 25, credited his victory — in
an unofficial time of 2:09:22 — to religious beliefs.
"I was strong," he said. "The Lord was always renewing my strength."
Pippig, 29, of Germany, blew kisses to the crowd as she crossed the finish line in an unofficial time of 2:25:11, about four minutes more than her record-breaking time. Nedeti, of Kenya, finished two minutes later than his record time of 2:07:15.
"It was such a great战. It was a little bit warm. It was nice." Plippig
said. "I had a little bit of a blister on my feet, but that's the marathoner's problem sometimes."
Her record time was 2:21:45.
Nedi noted that yesterday was the birthday of his son Gideon Boston, named in honor of his winning the race in 1993.
This year, his countryman Moses Tanui finished second with a time of 2:10:22. In third place was Luiz Antonio Dos Santos of Brazil.
For the women, Elana Meyer of
South Africa, finished second. Meyer had followed Pippig closely but fell behind and appeared to be limping at the 22-mile mark. Meyer and Tegla Loroupe, of Kenya, lost about 40 yards at the 20-mile mark when they tried to pick up water bottles and ran into each other.
in the wheelchair division, Jean Driscoll had her sixth straight win for the women, and Franz Nielispach of Switzerland was the men's wheelchair winner.
