The wife of the other Monrovia runner, 68-year-old Harry Terrill, wrote on Patch Tuesday that her husband is safe and unhurt as well.
"I'm Harry's wife and we quickly made contact with him - he had been at mile 25 when the first bomb exploded - but our family certainly appreciates all the love and concern we have felt from friends and community members," Barbara Terrill wrote. "We won't let the bad guys win this one!"
