I think so.  Let's just hope there is a tracking issue, and she is plugging along just fine.

Feeling sick to my stomach. SO GLAD JULIA IS OK!!!! My daughter (whose 11th bday is today, happy bday, sweetie!), her 5th-grade class spent the morning tracking their 4th-grade teacher who ran. And then their current teacher had to explain to them about the explosions... and, thankfully, that their teacher who ran was OK. How horrible for the kids to experience that range of emotions.

I've seen a few pics but can't bring myself to turn on the TV. It is so sad and sickening. Thankful that everyone I knew there is OK, a small victory in the day.

Julia, looking forward to hearing from you!! I know you had a flight home today, not sure if you'll make it. Sending virtual hugs to you and to everyone else as well!!

Logan re-opened and from what I can tell Julia is on the plane back home.  Sleuthing like Fatty for facts.

Thank you for sleuthing, Suzy. Glad to hear she's on her way home.

Just made it home safe and sound. Sorry to cause worry. I pulled the plug at mile 16 (spiraling fast with too far to go), and my bus was just approaching the medical tent when the bombs went off. So I was close enough to know something serious was going on but far enough away that I didn't know how serious until I got back to the hotel and saw the news coverage. It's still sinking in. I rushed to the airport, not knowing whether my plane would be grounded. Thankfully, we made it out. I'm relieved to be home, and my heart aches for those who did not make it home tonight.

Glad to hear your ok Julia.I had a few friends that normally run in that race and thank God everyone is ok. My heart goes out to all those families that have been devastated by another senseless act of violence.

My daughter lives in Boston now and had sent me a picture from her phone from the exact place where the first bomb went off right behind the flags. If she had hung around 10 more minutes.. ....well I don't even want to think about it.

Very grateful she is fine, and she actually received word that she got her dream job today. It is amazing how life changes on a dime in many ways.

OK off to run....I am way off on my training and have a 1/2 mary this weekend....going to need to suck it up.

Oh and also.....someone stole my new Merrill's out of the locker room.....I loved those shoes...time to get a new pair before the race need to break them in a little.
