2008 Boston Marathon; part 1

The gods have decided to be kind to the Boston runners this year; perfect conditions, cool, clear, and the pace is blistering on the men's side as Cheruiyot takes a commanding lead. The women's race is being led by a diminutive Russian gal, who has taken the Newton hills like a walk in the park.

I well up with emotion when I watch these amazing elites, and hear the roar of the crowds. Daryl has been good enough to give me the time to see the end, before I leave for work. I will continue the story later....stay tuned!
