Good luck to everyone running Boston next Monday, especially the first-timers! My only Boston was the 100th, when I got a lottery spot--and it was a great experience. I'm looking forward to a *quantum leap* in my training volume and running results so I can get to Boston again--most likely the next 3 to 5 years when I'll be in my early 50's--it will take my that long (or longer) to improve my times so that I can qualify.
I know a few people running it and at least one of them is a first timer.
Me, I still want to see a sub 20 minute 5k before I try to qualify again.
Thanks, Roger

I've decided to skip Boston but my team is sending a pretty good women's team going all have run sub 3:20 in the past year. They should do well. www.teamutopia2004.com

Another round of well wishes for the Boston Marathon runners. A freind of my husband's qualified with a whopping ten seconds to spare in his very first marathon. We're rooting for him and all of those who've worked hard enough to make it. Michelle Roger 2k <[email hidden]> wrote in message "]news:[email hidden]...
