                Holy smokes!  Robin is killing the last few miles!  She went through 40 k in 4:04:16, picking up her pace from 10:35 to 9:54!

                  Oh, I sure wish we knew that Marj went through 30k in 3:56:05...if only we were allowed to track her.

                              Marj - my hero

                              .

                              thanks mike and all, especially those who

                              have been there before and know it first hand.

                              .
                              To Marge:
                              How many Bostons have you run?
                              When was your last marathon before today?
                              When was your last half marathon before today?
                              What was your longest training run for today, if any?
                              Did you see anyone wearing jika-tabis?
                              How was it? Are you glad you did it?
                              We are.
                              .
                              To Henry:
                              How many Bostons have you run?
                              What year was your first and other Bostons?
                              What were the qualifying times in those days?
                              What year was your first marathon?
                              Did you neighbor friend do it too?
                              .

                              To Robin and Aamos and CNY

                              How many is this for you too?

                              I think OM's first but her results don't look like it.
