Here are some links for Boston: Pacing plans, Wisdom and Just Funny Info! I found all of these on the "Boston Marathon 2008" user group forum. If you haven't checked out that group (and are running Boston), I think you would find it very informational!

Bill Simmons is hilarious. Good stuff. As for the running of Boston: Though I will make a conscious effort to keep things in check those first few miles, I doubt I'll have a problem since I'm such a slow starter anyway. The starting times are now 10:00 AM and 10:30 AM, making it a little bit more normal than the traditional noon starting time. I don't relish the idea of sitting around Hopkinton for a couple of hours. Ugh. I'm thrilled to be able to participate in this race. Boston or Bust!

Running since January 2005

Upcoming races:
Hospital Hill Half-Marathon
Great Sandbagger 10K
Heart of America Marathon
