"“I wanted to win it for Boston ... win it for the people,” he said after the finish. “The last three to four miles, (the crowd) pushed me through it. I’m so lucky to be the champion. “It’s not about me,” he continued. “It’s Boston Strong. Meb Strong.” The 38-year-old elite runner said he had vowed to win the race after the Red Sox won the World Series last fall and the trophy was brought to the Boylston Street finish line by outfielder Jonny Gomes. “God bless America,” he said at the finish line. He also wrote the names of last year’s victims on the corners of his race bib."
