BOSTON -- Swiss Paralympic athlete Marcel Hug broke the Boston Marathon record for the fastest time in the men's wheelchair race for the second year in a row on Monday.

Hug, 38, won his seventh Boston Marathon title in the men's race and did it in a time of 1:15:33. It's the second year in a row he broke the course record. Making the feat even more impressive, however, is that Hug crashed during the race but still was able to make history.
