Boston Marathon

It was great to see the American men come in 3rd, 4th and 5th at Boston today! Of course, Kenyans placed the top two, but for the first time in 20 years or something, our elite marathoners broke up the usual logjam at the top of the standings. Very cool, indeed.

Now, the only thing that would have made it better would have been for the rest of my Gazelles pals to have qualified and participated this year. It was apparently great running weather today, breaking a streak of warm/hot days in Boston. We had a lot of Gazelles up in Boston, and there were some really strong times. Most of the times I saw were between 3:15 and 3:35, a tidy little grouping. I can't wait to hear their Boston tales!
