Walker giving it
everything he has.

1:21:02
Both runners appear utterly drained,
but they are sprinting,

1:21:06
willing themselves to the finish line.
This is now

1:21:09
a battle of wills...
sheer determination.

1:21:12
Remember when
1:21:14
I moved in you
1:21:16
The Holy Dove
1:21:19
Was moving too
1:21:21
And every breath we drew
1:21:23
was Hallelujah
1:21:27
Bannon's starting to move.
1:21:29
Bannon is starting to move.
1:21:30
Walker's got to go now,
if he has any hope of winning.

1:21:33
Bannon still has the lead
and is driving furiously

1:21:35
for the line.
1:21:37
And John Bannon wins Boston!
1:21:39
John Bannon wins
the Boston Marathon.

1:21:43
The 1953 champion repeats
in spectacular fashion.

1:21:49
The laurel wreath is his.
1:21:51
It took 26 miles to decide it,
1:21:54
but we finally have a winner.
1:21:56
Oh, my Goodness.
1:21:59
I can't remember a marathon
1:22:02
ever coming down
to the wire like this.

1:22:05
You have just been a part
of sporting history.

1:22:30
I did my best
1:22:32
It wasn't much
1:22:34
I couldn't feel
1:22:35
So I tried to touch
1:22:37
I've told the truth
1:22:39
I didn't come
1:22:41
To fool ya
1:22:45
And even though
1:22:47
It all went wrong
1:22:48
I'll stand before
1:22:50
the Lord of song
1:22:52
With nothing on my tongue
1:22:55
But Hallelujah
1:22:59
Hallelujah
