Four Local Runners Finish Hot Marathon

Runners from Sleepy Hollow and Tarrytown bested the heat to finish the annual race on Patriots Day in Massachusetts.

With the temperatures reaching the upper 80's, more than 22,000 runners competed in the 116th Boston Marathon on Monday. More than 3,000 marathon runners didn't even bother to show up because of the heat and hundreds more had to retire early because they were overcome by the high temperatures.

Wesley Korir (2:12:40) and Sharon Cherop (2:31:40) pulled off the sweep for the Kenyans.

Here's a complete list of area finishers. Don't see yourself here? Let us know in the comment thread and we'll update our table. . If you attended or participated and want to upload your photos here, click on the "upload photos and video" button.
