Robert Cheruiyot Wins Fourth Boston Marathon Title

BOSTON (WBZ) ― Robert Cheruiyot won his third consecutive Boston Marathon Monday and became the first four-time winner since Bill Rodgers.

Cheruiyot ran away from the pack in a blistering official time of 2 hours, 7 minutes, 46 seconds. 

He missed the course record he set two years ago by 33 seconds.

He became the fourth man with four victories in the men's edition of the world's oldest annual 26.2-mile race.

Cheruiyot and women's winner Dire Tune of Ethiopia each earned $150,000.
