The 128th Boston Marathon is in the books and Sisay Lemma put on an exhibition the first 20 miles of the race and held on for the win as Hellen Obiri blasted the final 5 miles to win her battle with Sharon Lokedi. CJ Albertson joined the sub 2:10 club. What's up with the Kenyan and Ethiopian Olympic teams? Alicia Monson is out of the Olympics, what about Parker Valby's chances? Colin Sahlman ran 3:33.9 to get the big win at Bryan Clay. Is he a contender for the Olympics? Adam Spencer won the Aussie 1500m title, Jacious Sears blasted a 10.77, Mykolas Alekna broke the oldest men's world record on the books, and the Diamond League is really dead in the US as it will be on Flotrack in 2025.
