  • Comments: This is the fourth year I've done this race, and I've been faster every time. This was still a half PR, but it wasn't very satisfying.

  • Comments: I was a bit upset at the end for not meeting my time goal, but I did PR by 11 minutes from a fall marathon, and 18 months ago I struggled to get under 2:00 in a half marathon. I look forward to seeing where my improved fitness takes me in my next races.

  • Comments: I had a great run but it didn't really seem to be all that well organized. I carry water so I was fine but my friends were wishing their were more drink stations because they forgot theirs. Also, at the end, they funnel everyone into the world trade center and it was too many people, and stuffy in there. Did not seem like a very good idea.

  • Comments: Probably be the last time I run this race. I enjoy the festivities and I love the city of Boston, I just really do not like the course, being exposed out there in the sun on Memorial Drive. 2nd year in a row this has been a problem, the sun bearing down on you.

  • Comments: As far as I was concerned, there weren't nearly enough aid stations for us BOP'ers. 5 aid stations? 1.5, 4, 6, 8, and 11 miles. I was really dehydrated by the end of the run.
