Here's How Arlington Runners Finished In The 2018 Boston Marathon

BOSTON, MA — The 122nd running of the Boston Marathon took place Monday, April 16. In Boston, Patriots Day has grown to take on a larger meaning as one of the great days of sport and human triumph. Runners from across the globe flock to be tested by the 26.2-mile course from the Hopkinton start line to the famous Boylston Street finish line.

For the first time in 33 years, an American won the race, with 34-year-old Desiree Linden taking the crown in the women's division with a time of 2 hours, 39 minutes, and 53 seconds. Meanwhile, 31-year-old Yuki Kawauchi of Japan won the men's division with a time of 2:15:53.
