BOSTON (AP) --- Former first daughter Chelsea Clinton finished the Boston
Marathon on Monday and her parents were waiting at the finish line to
congratulate her.
The 46-year-old author and the vice chair of the Clinton Foundation ran the
26.2-mile (42.195-kilometer) race in 3 hours, 40 minutes, 52 seconds. Joining
former President Bill Clinton and former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton to
meet her at the finish line was 2014 champion Meb Keflezghi --- the last
American man to win the race.
According to athlinks.com, Chelsea Clinton has run six other marathons,
including New York four times, and Monday's run was a personal best.
Other notable participants who ran in Monday's record-setting race included
astronaut Suni Williams, who finished in 5:52:49; hockey Hall of Famer Zdeno
Chara, who ran it in 3:18:00; 2018 Boston winner Des Linden, who finished
second in the women's masters division in 2:35:49; and 1968 men's winner Amby
Burfoot, who finished in 5:11:29.
