Boston Marathon- have you run it? Or other big races

[mommy111]

Ahhhh thanks for posting this!!!! A friend of mine from Brookline ran her first marathon ever as part of a charity team. It's all about overcoming adversity.

In Salt Lake City, last year the SLC marathon was the Saturday after Boston. The SLC marathon offered free entry to anybody who wore their Boston shirts. There were a number of people who did it. I was impressed. It was pouring rain and cold and these people had just run another marathon 5 days earlier. But they did it--just to prove they could and would come back.

AWESOME!!!

I love this. I love Boston and am so glad you feel this way!

awww, thank you ladies for indulging me!!

No as I live on the opposite coast. I might eventually bring myself to do a 1/2 marathon, but first I have to do a 10k and I haven't been actively searching for one and really running isn't my thing.

I have so much appreciation for marathon runners. I have been running 10k's and plan to run my first 1/2 in October at the Nike SF run. I don't really see myself ever wanting to run a full marathon but you never know.
