Yay! I sure hope we can spend more time together than that, though. Maybe an art tour, La T Doe?

WOW, fast crowd in Boston this year, last year I was 10748 (1st wave, 10th corral) This year, with the same qualifying time I will be starting in the second wave ETA 1:30 PM :: 11550 :: Divechief :: Red or Orange gatorade I expect to be wearing some sort of Maniac clothes, that should make me a little easier to spot.

I have never visitedd here at 'boomers' (I am qualified to do so now) and what a support you guys are offering at Boston!! ETA: 1:35ish Bib#: 16413 Name: Yoshiko (planning to write that somewhere on my top) A cup of regular gaterade will be greatly appreciated. And a special a word of encouragement or two will be great!!!BTW, "Boston Marathon Pacing & Info" link is very very informative. Though my main goal is to enjoy the experience, this helps put the course up/down inro into a rough plan.

Well Robin, you're ahead of me! I'm in corral 18, bib #18674. My immediate reaction was "dang I'm slow", but then again, I was fast enough to make Boston so I guess it isn't all that bad.-Dove ------------------ My Profile

ETA: 2:36 (12:45 EST) Bib: 8705 Name: Mark Wearing: Boston Foodbank uniform--black shorts, white shirt, Foodbank Hat Would like: same as last year or just last year`s plus a banana (not last year`s) Wanting to run: 3:20 Pace: 7.38This is amazing. The idea of it last year was great. The reality this year will be even better. Even if the drink isn't.

Realistically, I'd love the Krug, but I also know that it's just not in the boomer budget, so whatever is available is what I'll drink!! According to my Boston calculator http://www.box.net/public/75o3rqgty9 provided by Soundrunner, I'll be ready for some liquid refreshments at 12:25 or so, guessing on the high side of so.....I'll be the only guy running with bib # 4257.....as of press time I'm not sure what I'll be wearing, except for a smile on my face. Will there be a tip jar?

Pro, what a cool thing to do for the Boomers in Beantown!I am planning on running with Hermosaboy through mile 20. No guarantee that I can stay with him, but my hope is to be in his shadow when we hit the Boomer Water Stop. Figuring 3:00 offset in corral #4, and a 7:20/mile pace makes: 12:30PM ETA Bib#4192 JohnMaas Bottle of H2O, 1 banana ------------------ "Run Smart, Run Strong" My Profile

Soundrunner/Krista Bib #17675 ETA 1:22:45 p.m. Banana and yes, a water with an e-cap sounds great, too! SS -- I think your ETA must be off because I know I'm not going to be in front of you . . .
Thanks so much, Pro and Team.
