🤯UNBELIEVABLE 🤯

Grant O’Connor just ran 2:16:17 at the @bostonmarathon finishing 19th overall and 5th American while setting a 2+ minute PR and a new Hartbeat marathon record!

Grant is a shining example of what perseverance, hard work, and unwavering dedication to the sport can accomplish, running 140+ mile weeks all winter and taking the little things like sleep just as seriously. Congratulations 👏👏👏
