SOUNDBITE (English) Meb Keflizighi, men's winner:
"Toward the end I'll be honest I was a little bit nervous. I know he was coming after me but by the same token it's like he has to work hard to catch up to me and I try to say save something, save something and then when the Citgo sign comes I said I got one mile to go and work on form, coach Larsen always says techniques, techniques and and I just did that and downhill technique, uphill technique and my training's been going well I know I was as ready as I can be at the same time I'm almost 39 and just ran a personal best and just won the Boston Marathon it can't happen at a better time and I'm blessed."
