Kenya swept the Boston Marathon last Sunday, as Robert Cheruiyot set a new course record en route to victory, and Rita Jeptoo overcame passport problems and won the women's race. The American men also had their best showing in two decades, claiming three of the top five spots and five of the top ten. The Michigan-based Hansons-Brooks Distance Project also boosted its image by placing an amazing 7 runners in the top 25 spots.
