That will be something to see-—thanks for the info.

I have been going to the Boston since the 40s (few runners in those days)-—and a daughter,son,and granddaughter have run and qualified.

(My running career consisted of running to catch a bus in 1955.):-)

Wow, that is something, I read Joe Falls’ book on the Boston Marathon and that came out in 1976, so quite some time even then. It certainly has a colorful history. A great sports event. There are surely, a number of books chronicling the Boston Marathon.

I cranked out a 6 + hr, zero training, cold start, slight hangover.

hate running, just couldn't stand all those jock-o-tools, going on & on about weightlifting/bodybuilding not about fitness, runners are special, blah blah blah.
