Sellers, 26, who works as a nurse in Arizona, was running only her second marathon after starting training roughly seven months ago. "I still think I'm going to wake up and it's gonna be a dream," Sellers told running news website letsrun.com. "I always felt like her career should have ended better," Pilkington told the Tribune. But if you would have told me she was second at Boston, I would have said no way."
