Meb Keflezighi, this year's male winner of the Boston Marathon, is answering questions Thursday on Twitter.
Keflezighi made headlines in April when he became the first American to win the Boston Marathon in almost 30 years. The last time an American male took first place was in 1983. 1985 was the last year an American female runner won the race.
He announced the Twitter Q&A shortly after 1 p.m. Eastern Daylight Time.
Excited to get my New York on #tcsnycmarathon! I'm here to answer your questions until 2pm. Tweet #mebrunsnyc and I'll reply.

True to form, Keflezighi's already answered several questions and shows no signs of stopping anytime soon.
UPDATE: Keflezighi answered questions until 5 p.m. Here are some of the highlights:
